Thanks, Ann and Mo.

I had never heard of 'In the Fields in Frost and Snow', so big thanks. It turns out to have been in PEDM editions of 1710, 1714, 1718, 1728. Mo, if you could give the highlights about it from the EFDSS Journal or the issue number I'd be most grateful.

Ann, I already play Chestnut (or Dove's Figary) on 4 course renaissance guitar and John Dowland's Mistress Winter's Jump on lute, but for some reason hadn't thought of them for the show - so thank you! And Cast a Bell - why didn't I think of that? Wonderful!

Any more excellent suggestions?

Big smiles.
