T’aint Christmas: 100 years of the Owls of Pill

’Til ’Y’uv ’erd The Owls’. So the saying goes - in the quaint and historically rich Somerset village of Pill. Tucked away at the mouth of the river Avon, Pill is home to a small, dedicated group of volunteers who have kept alive a Christmas tradition for over a century! Through peace and war, storm and blizzard, and dressed in Dickensian costumes, the Owls of Pill have gone out in December to sing carols, raise money for charity and bring the true spirit of Christmas to so many. This book is written as a celebration of 100 years of the Owls of Pill and a testimony to those hardy souls who have served and those who are still serving. A joyful book, it will leave you with the comforting feeling that, in a fast-changing world, there is still something as admirable and constant as the Owls of Pill’
