If you start listening to this recording of Orlando Gibbons' 'This is the Record of John' at 23:58.13 on New Year's Eve, midnight will strike as John says "NO".

Start 2026 the right way.

Somehow I've been sharing #CursedCarols for five year, since I shoved Hark! the Herald into Aberystwyth in 2021.

Look, if you run with torches, chances are you're going to end up in Casualty.
