Listening to #9LessonsAndCarols on Radio 4, and have concluded that the reason I’ve always loved the final reading, largely independently of whether I’ve happened to believe it to be true at any given point in my life, is because… neurodivergence. There’s something about the way it turns round and round in tight little circles of language and logic, the patterns it makes in the mind
Fun fact: the service of Nine Lessons and Carols was originally used to get the people of Cornwall out of the pubs and into church on Christmas Eve: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine_Lessons_and_Carols#History

The reference to “our sovereign lord King Charles” came as an ugly shock #9LessonsAndCarols

It's joyous that #Advent Sunday fell within #NationalTreeWeek and I got to sing Elizabeth Poston's "Jesus Christ the Apple Tree" - one of my favourite pieces of #choral #music, with the best #Alto 2 line anywhere!!
