Pantomine et chants de Noel - Pantomine and Christmas carols

Il y a beaucoup de traditions ici autour de Noel. Outre la nativite jouee dans toutes les ecoles, il y a le pantomine et aussi les chants de Noel, religieux ou non.
Nous avons decide d'aller voir un pantomine au theatre de Guildford, appele Jack et le haricot magique. Oscar a bien evidemment adore les chants, les danses, les deguisements, l'histoire, etc... et il reparle encore souvent du mechant auquel on fait "bouhhh" des qu'il rentre sur scene!

There are many traditions here around Christmas. Next to the nativity play performed in all schools, you can go to the pantomine, to listen to Christmas Carols, etc.
We decided to go to Guildford's theater to see Jack and the beanstalk. Oscar loved obviously the songs, dances, the story, etc. and he sometimes still refers to the nasty man for who we all went "booohh" when he entered the stage!







Nous avons aussi ete au service des Chants de Noel a notre eglise. Il y a eu plusieurs chants de Noel et un chante par les enfants. Comme Oscar le connaissait, il a rejoint le groupe et a chante avec les plus grands enfants. Il y avait ensuite les tartelettes de Noel (mince pies) et du vin chaud. C'etait tres sympa.

We also participated to the Christmas Carols at our church. There were several carols and one of them was sung by the children (Away in a manger), Oscar joined the group as he knew the words. There was afterwards mince pies and mulled wine, it was very nice and friendly.
