Yes, Dave, I agree about the very moving ending. That song "At Jacob's Well" is just right. Likewise the beginning, with that beautiful song, "The Year Turns Around":

And the snow falls
And the wind calls
And the year turns round again....

We are having "real snow", shipped in from a frozen pea factory on the East coast !

I am the other way round from you - i.e. this is my "intro" from acting into morris dancing ! We had our first rehearsal for the morris jig today (3 men, 3 women) [being taught by a "proper" morris man]. What fun - and what a great way to keep fit. I am hooked already. We are only a third of the way into the dance - so I hope there aren't any dodgy hop-skip-and-jumps to come. So far, so good. Will keep you posted.
