I'll have to try and find some of the music to see if any of it's familiar. I'm sure I must've sung at least one or two of these carols while growing up, but none of them ring any bells...so to speak :)<BR/>It's lovely to read these words and remember the hot Christmas days of my Aussie childhood, and beyond to the days of young parenthood.

I'll show the words to my pupils and perhaps I'll even find one or the other melody for it so it would be possible to sing a song....<BR/>I'm also wishing you and your dear family a merry Christmas and all the very best for a happy, joyful and successful 2008.
