At peace with almost all the world as I listen to the carols from Kings...so much better than the happy-clappy Christingle nonsense on offer at the local church.
Makes me recall Charles Ryder's words in Brideshead when he was drinking good and old wine and trying to forget his tedious dinner companion, Rex Mottram::
'A reminder that the world was an older and better place than Rex knew, that mankind in its long passion had learned another wisdom than his.'
