There is an album of midwinter songs and carols many of which are included in the words and music performance, it's also called "Fire and Sleet and Candlelight" (NMCD21). Details are on our website and if I could only have worked out how to do the blue clicky things, you could have got straight there from my mail. Until I sort out the technology, you'll have to enter the address to see what's there. Yours - some fingers but more thumbs - Georgina |

There's a bunch of your friends in DC who are eager to order the "Fire & Sleet" CD. Is there a way to do it by credit card from the NoMasters site, or do we need to rely on Dick Greenhaus and Camsco for our U.S. supply? Good luck with the tour. Sounds like a busy December for all of you. Happy holidays! Kathy |

I've chosen it for my CD of the month for December, and I played a track on Sounds of Folk last night. I'm now almost ready for Christmas!! Ali |

It's still quintessential listening material in my house. Wish you were back this year, roasting in front of the fire...! |

They know how to celebrate Christmas at Nellies. Dick's order is on its way for patrons of the excellent service offered by Camsco - or you can get copies by mail order with credit card or cheque to us. Thanks very much everyone. Georgina |
