Brian,

Now that brings back the memories. Living and being brought up in Kenya the last thing we ever had was a 'White Christmas'. My father didn't play a musical instrument at all but he did love listening to music, and his two favourites were Bing Crosby and Victor Silvester. I was 12 years old when the film White Christmas came out, with Bing Crosby starring in it, so as a sort of ritual on Christmas Day, out came the record player and the 78rpm of Bing singing White Christmas .. while we imagined all the folk at home sitting in front of a log fire with chestnuts, Christmas pudding and mince pies. And the snow falling outside the window.



Little did we realise the truth of the matter .. that a White Christmas wasn't the norm in UK (well, maybe it is in Scotland?).

Hi Brian,
It was all written out on the music, so no arranging on my part.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Hugh,
I remember when I lived in Africa that there was a snow fall on the Drakensberg Mountains.
My next door neighbour drove all the way from Zululand with her family to see it.
