Merry Christmas y'all! I'm at my Sister's house, helping with lunch while listening to Madeiran folk music...having a wee dance in the kitchen!

Play something Christmassy by Aimee Mann or 'Winter Wonderland' by The Eurythmics for my lovely sister Frances and my other lovely sister Tricia (if she's listening in John o' Groats!

BRING ME THE MAN DRESSED IN RED OF ALFREDO GARCIA

I'd like to say a big thank you to whoever suggested Aimee Mann's "God rest ye merry gentlemen" a couple of shows ago. I tend to get fed up hearing the same Christmas songs being played over and over again so was looking for something new this year. I therefore downloaded Aimee's Christmas album.

It is good

For Monday - My Auntie Siobhan gave me this single which I love then on my 11th birthday gave me the album.
