All you ever wanted to know about Chorlton & Christmas but never knew who to ask, .............. again

Christmas on the meadows 
Just a reminder that the talk we are doing tonight may be fully booked but we are back at the Post Box Cafe, tomorrow night on Friday December 13th to do it all over again.

We will start with Christmas but in an effort to make sure the big day is not compromised before it happens; we are looking forward to some of the other festivals and holidays that you could have enjoyed as the year played out sometime in the 19th century.

Nor is that all because I have asked my old friend Mike Billington to come along and sing some traditional songs associated with the different seasons.

So there you have it, some Christmas stories and songs along with a little bit more featuring everything from Easter, Pace Egging, bull and badger baiting, and Harvest time, it’s just got the lot.

Tickets include the usual excellent pre talk dinner at 6 pm followed by the talk at 7.30.
