Carol concert @ St. Helen's Church

Another plodding day at work today as the Xmas rundown continues. I did have a deviation from the norm though as Sara invited some of us to a Carols In The City concert at St. Helen's Church which is just opposite The Gherkin. As I've been starting to feel a bit festive I decided to give it a go and have a different lunch break.


It was a nice little service. We sang a few carols: Once In Royal David's City, God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman (done in an upbeat prog rock style), Silent Night (with gorgeous french horn accompaniment), Hark The Herald Angels Sing and finishing off with O Come All Ye Faithful. Could have done without the dark sermon though which seemed out of sorts with the rest of the Christmas message but hey ho! Other than that it was nice to go an participate in some carol singing and broke up the day very nicely.

St, Helen's is a gorgeous little church. I would have got more photos if it hadn't been so busy.
