Very nice version. I've heard a lot of Christmas music over the last week, my grandsons have a favourite Spotify playlist which has been on continuous loop... they are 2 and 4, so they prefer the cheerier songs:)

I actually have my own compilation CD somewhere of all my favourite Christmas songs, but I did send all my CDs to the dump prior to shifting, so I've reverted to Spotify -- just type in a song, and it'll give you a playlist of thousands of different versions! I'll also been looking for a song myself, but haven't managed to find it -- it was on the Plunket Christmas album 2010, I think, after I'd discovered Hollie Smith while I was stuck in hospital, and I went looking afterwards for anything I could find. There was a video on her Facebook page, I think, showing a recording session for the album, Hollie and others, including Annie Crummer singing O Holy Night. It was just the vocals, you don't get to here the music, so this year I wanted to buy the complete recording, but haven't managed to find it. It must exist somewhere, I have a whole year to find it now..... For me, Hollie Smith and Annie Crummer would make the dream team.

On a different note(!) here's my son's Christmas promotion for his company -- he's the one faffing around organising in the beginning. His wife, Maira, is front and centre. Yes, it is interactive, so have fun....

Interestingly.... ....

..unlike the Americans, most Brits don't do Christian stuff, or any other Religious stuff.....

..so that way, we don't get involved in conflicts.... ...!

..or have to buy, and post Xmas Cards to anybody/everybody.... ...!

Not a single house on my estate is light up with crazy Fairy Lights!

Xmas for all we "Fozzers" is just an excuse to stuff our faces with Roast Turkey...and get pie-eyed on Vino.... ...!

Paul....Hally-bleedin'-loo-ya!... ...!
