Chris, glad you were at Worrall ( it should be on Songs of Praise TV on Dec 5th I was told)

Did the carol find its way out to the GlenRock carollers via a direct link, as they had originators in the Sout Pennines. Dave Eyre did quite a lot to forge new links.

By the way we have quite a few Jacob's Ladder's round here on hilly walks, was that a religious link too signifying toil ? Or just a Biblical allusion like the road to hell?.
