Holiday Greetings

From Ruthann and Jan!

The music you should be hearing is the accompaniment to "Back Then," a Christmas song that Jan wrote during our first year in Durban.

Jan thinks this song might be nice for children's voices, but we were all children once, and some of us still are in many ways, so let's join in!


We wish one and all the joys of the 'Festive Season' (as they call it in Durban) and a

prosperous, safe and Happy New Year!
