    Battery powered fairy lights with timer still running on a bush outside the back door in April. How long will they last?

    Savage voice cast there. I only found out Fiona Shaw was Irish this year. I must have been living under a rock.

    I got an email newsletter from Lookfantastic.com this morning that included a bit about their Christmas shop being open! Not sure if that is a year round thing or not

    I watched the Holdovers last night not realising it was a film set at Christmas (the director doesn't want it considered just a Christmas film but its deffo more definitively a Christmas film than die hard).

    It was a lovely gentle watch. The way it was filmed made it feel nostalgic and even though I hadn't seen it before it felt familiar. It had some melancholy but overall I'd give it an 8 out of 10.

    Think there's a bit of the new irish film 'So That they may face the rising sun' is set at Christmas

    On site with a multinational client earlier this morning, looking at doing some works to their large reception area and when prompting them for information re: various possibilities they advised us that their Christmas tree location in the reception area was 100% off limits. Loving the priorities!

    Ha ha , love it, they have got it right.

    On your way into the Tayto factory there is a plastic statue of Mr.Tayto. I have long campaigned that there should be a small evergreen tree planted beside him for the sole purpose of putting lights on it during the season. I just don't have the clout to authorize it :)

    I heard on the radio that someone held up a sign that said 222 days to Christmas. Was anyone from here at Bruce last night??! 😂



  • Registered Users Posts: 10,314 ✭✭✭✭DvB


    Clearly Cork folk (well that one anyway) can't count… today is day 222!!! 😉

    They played it on the breakfast show on Nova this morning, was great listening toa Christmas tune in May on the radio!!

    Dee Woods did point out that if notorious grinch PJ Gallagher was in the studio he'd be going nanas!! But she was more than happy to play it (which is good given she joined the Christmas FM team last year too!!)

    Was flicking through an American movies channel on the fire stick and stumbled across Last Christmas starring Emilia Clarke at 8pm. Was so tempted to watch it because I like the film, like Emilia Clarke and it's full of George Michael songs.
