Visited by Carollers

I went downstairs at the B&B to eat dinner last night and the doorbell rang. I was shocked to see actual carollers so I asked if I could take their picture, which made them laugh. L thought it was funny that I had never seen carollers before. I answered, "only in the movies". I was telling my cousin N that we had carollers and she said that in the States if someone comes to your door singing, our natural reaction might be to answer it armed.
