I love listening too MRH. I always think how nice it must be for visitors to walk into school and that be the first thing they hear.

I'm sure it's a lovely sight twinkling away there Jasmine. ;D MRH you've made me think of my little Grandaughter Aoife, she makes up her own words to songs and she's so funny. ;D

We were doing a Christmas alphabet in my class years ago and we got to 'c' and a little boy said 'creep'. I had a bit of a think and then said, 'That's great - tell us what's Christmassy about creep' and he said, 'You know...Away in a manger no creep for a bed'. So sweet ;D

My GF's little grand-daughter was with Daddy and were meeting the Queen, one Christmas. The Queen walked towards them - she was wearing a long red coat and GD - who was only about 4 - yelled out HO HO HO ! in a Father Christmas booming bellow  |

Jasmine, you've put me in the mood for an early Christmas. Ruth can't get over this year but I've put in for some holidays at the end of November/beginning of December. If Jenny can come at that time, we might just go to Ruth and have a Christmas then. ;D Fingers crossed.

I've got 5 birthdays between now and Christmas, it's a very expensive time for me.

That does make it expensive Barbara.
The boys have their birthday at the beginning of December. I feel a bit sorry for them with everything coming together...and a bit sorry for us! ;D

Awww! My boys had a flashing light, musical FP arch thing that you were supposed to put baby under. They were terrified of it at first. I'm going to get some FP shares ;D |

That's the sort of thing. Brings back memories. I quite liked those as it was tricky to put the boys down on the floor with Jessie pup rampaging about.

It's not officially "C" until the Coca Cola "Holidays are Coming" advert comes on TV. As I don't watch TV, I'll not see it lol So, I'm starting "C" whenever I feel like it.
I have to admit, as much as I love "C", I was annoyed to hear a "C" song in a shop today. Besides it being a really awful cover version of a song I don't like anyway (The Waitresses one), I don't want to hear songs yet. For two reasons really... 1) it's too early, even by MY standards and 2) It made me all excited momentarily and then I remembered that it's still a way off and got a little depressed.
