The Sans Day Carol
The music playing is the Sans Day Carol first transcribed in the 19th century from the singing of a villager in St. Day (also Sans Day, or St. They - named after a Breton saint venerated in Cornwall) in the parish of Gwennap,
Now
the holly bears a berry as white as the milk,
And Mary bore Jesus, all wrapped up in silk:
Chorus
And Mary bore Jesus our Saviour for to be,
And the first tree in the greenwood, it was the holly.
Holly! Holly!
And the first tree in the greenwood, it was the holly!Chorus
Now
the holly bears a berry as green as the grass,
And Mary bore Jesus, who died on the cross:
Chorus
Now
the holly bears a berry as black as the coal,
And Mary bore Jesus, who died for us all:
The Cornish L-list is a mailing list for researchers of ancestors who either lived in Cornwall, UK or emigrated from Cornwall to the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and many other location. The list is normally a place for serious research into family history, but each year we also have the virtual party. This years party was held at Jamaica Inn, Bolventor from the 12th to the 17th and then at The Tregenna Hotel St Ives from the 18th to the 20th.
If you are not a list member, and would like to see what the revellers got up to, you need to click HERE which will take you to the archive page. Then put christmas party 2004 in the query box and click 2004 as the year.
You can also find a summary on the site click on the blue headings to go to a new page. So keep coming back and don't forget to renew the page on each visit.
Hope you enjoy

Here you can find the guest list of names and royal titles. Before you sue me I must point out that these were generated with computer programs. If you have been a regular party goer and would prefer to use the same name as you used in the past, I will add it as a alias if you let me know.
To get your name go to Radio Cornwall site
And your title can be found here

There has been report that you need planning permission to fly the flag of St Piran in Cornwall. As a result: of this -
Queen Corinne-Cheeky Saffron-Helper The Admiral, Her Incomparable Eminence, The Honorable Slayer of Toorak (I think the S in slayer is silent as she is aka "The Toorak Tart"). suggested that the knitters group knit a virtual St. Piran's Flag, large enough to fly over the whole of Cornwall?

During the virtual party we get offered some wonderful food from around the world. Its really nice when people send in the recipes so that we can actually try them. Here are some from this years party.
In the last two years we had some wonderful poems sent in so with your help we are going to do it again.
