Dear All, the South Yorkshire Carols usually start the first Sunday after Armistace Day (which is the 11th November) so I reckon they start on 18th November. I've only really been to the Royal at Dungworth which is near Stannington in Sheffield. they run every Sunday till Christmas they sometime do one on Boxing Day even if it's not a Sunday (which was quieter last year). You have got to try and get there before 12 noon (the pub opens at 12 noon) as it gets very very busy for the first two hours. There are also sessions at the Blue Ball at Worrall in North Sheffield, somewhere in Grenoside and a handfull of other places. The 'man' for all the info is Ian Russell but Malcolm Douglas will probably provide the details of bits I've missed. Can I say that it's one of the most 'spiritual' things I've ever been to and that says a lot coming from an Atheiest
