I bring glad tidings from the North Pole that Santa is indeed locked and loaded and ready for the annual trip.
And as I too am in reasonably festive humour, may I give to you, an early Christmas Present. A selection of some festive tunes with a few Christmas No1’s thrown in for good measure.

I dread to think what’ll happen if there’s actually ever a storm that shuts us down completely.
And inconveniently, always on the bloody weekend. The show must go on or some other lame excuse.

Thanks for the interest and song choices. 10 out of 14 songs picked. So don’t leave it too late. Pick a tune. A dedication and a line on the choice reason. I’ll do the rest. You’re welcome.

For next weeks show and after discussing the situation with my production team and stylist, I have decided that we will try a request show next Saturday for the craic.
Now at this stage you know the type of stuff I play so all reasonable suggestions will be accepted.
In other words don’t try to be a smart arse.
14 tracks to be chosen and maybe you would give me a couple of lines of a reason for or a dedication to with the song or whatever.
Let’s see how it goes. Could be a complete disaster. We’ll see. Over to you.
