Now Glen would have to pay over $1 million for these gifts. That's what his house cost. He wrote in his autobiography about things his wife bought for it. Their divorce settlement gave her a lot of money, including the house. She died before he did. During the 70s one local TV station did their own tally of what these gifts would cost. They got the lords to leap by saying they wouldn't pay their way home otherwise. Richard Simmons used to have a syndicated newspaper column. He once did a series on these items, noting their nutritional value. The five gold rings represented the Olympics. I miss him, Andy, and Glen.
That does not even come close! The song repeats. You have a total of 12 partridges in pair trees, 22 turtle doves, 30 French hens, 36 calling birds, 40 gold rings, 42 geese a laying, 42 swans a swimming, 40 maids a milking, 36 ladies dancing, 30 lords a leaping, 22 pipers piping, and 12 drummers drumming.

I think it wasn't meant as an actual total. It was a skit
Hugs are free

Just wondering how many people know that The Twelve Days of Christmas is actually a religious song.
