I have to confess the tree is up already and our Christmas Menus start on December 1st for those who want to celebrate with a cracker or two and a festive spirit. What better than to combine music with great food and a wonderful atmosphere? Check Ripon Cathedral web site to find a way to combine the two: http://www.riponcathedral.org.uk/
