Looks good but carols in January doesn’t seem right. Isn’t it bad luck?
Seems odd that you’re not familiar with the early Christian and Medieval traditions such as Epiphany and the Festival of the Circumcision, which would be celebrated with the singing of carols through January.
Oh grief – all this talk of circumcision is very triggering, to use a popular term (which I have never seen inflicted on the pages of your hallowed organ). Epiphany was on Monday 6th but we celebrated a day earlier, which I understand is all in order. BTW, so impressed with your theological sophistication, as ever.
