Happy Times at Fermor indeed!
 
The ceremony was interspersed with musical accompaniment from W.Bro.Roger Watkinson, all on a Christmas theme.
 
Very apt, as we then retired to the Very, Festive board of Christmas Dinner with mince pies.
 
Roger then produced hymn  books, and leading his congregation, carols were sung to the enjoyment of all.
 
Looking forward to seeing them all soon at our White Table event on the 20th, which seemed to be going down well with the Brethren.
 
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all!
