Kate's carols really kick off Christmas

THERE'S nothing quite like Christmas carols to get you in the festive spirit and that's why the Princess of Wales's Together at Christmas concert is one of my favourite events of the year.

Held inside the breathtaking Westminster Abbey, famed for its huge, vaulted ceilings and pointed arches and where Catherine married her Prince Charming - there really is no better venue.

As guests arrived on Friday afternoon, they were greeted by an array of British woodland trees creating a natural, festive environment.

And inside there was a magical atmosphere with gorgeously decorated wreaths, Christmas trees and a nativity scene inside the nave.
