[NSP] Re: Winter tunes

[Ian Lawther]

I've had replies to this letting me know its Shrove Tuesday which might 
be a stretch to count as the current season - but I may just stretch it.

My thinking with it is that "Chevy Chase" is used at the game, "The Lads 
of Alnwick" take part in it and  "Lamshaw's Fancy"  could round out the 
set as Lamshaw would once have led the procession  from the Castle. A 
trivia tie-in for young American  school kids who won't know what the 
hell I'm talking about is that many of them will , unknowingly, have 
seen Alnwick Castle in the quiditch scenes of the Harry Potter films.

So is Shrove Tuesday wintery enough......
