Down in the woods we found thousands of folk gazing upwards... towards the Dogwood Dell war memorial. On which 200 local church goers of every age, re-enacted the nativity for an 80th year. A gentle spectacle with the most fantastic heavenly host who popped up in the 'Gloria' strumming golden harps - camp and glorious, however some distress for M as the baby Jesus lay below the parapet and out of sight. Finally carols in the still, open air and sung with real panache.
