Sunday 12th 13 days before the big day. Christmas Past (p6), Christmas Present (p10) and Christmas’ to come (p27) all feature with Sonnets form Rex Di Noci! I do also have a special thank you to David Sargent for his piece ‘Worth waiting for?’(p8).

When I look back at December 2020, we have all come a long way, part two of my article about Eden FM radio’s first 10 years concludes, now topped by the work I am now doing planning the next 10 years.
