In the Christmas Mood AGAIN - LIVE365

Guys,

There is one thing that if you don't already know about me, is that I LOVE CHRISTMAS,  maybe not the busy shopping centres part though.  Having spent a few of childhood years growing up in Northern Ireland, I was privileged to have had a couple of snowy / icy (not quite true White Christmases), but whitish never the less. Now living in a southern hemisphere I have no snow for Xmas, unless I jet-set to the northern parts of the world. So Christmas music, good times with the family is what I love, presents, turkey, ham and lots of cold beer is my thing!

Over the years I've noticed that the music on the radio stations don't start playing lots of Xmas music any more till 2 weeks before Christmas. Unlike shopping centres at the start of October and the Xmas decoration are out already for sale.

Although the music doesn't start till just before Christmas, one of my favour sources of online internet radio is LIVE365 and here you have over 260 genres and over 10,000 radio stations to choose from. So if you head to the "Seasonal/Holiday" section you'll find a stack of 24/7 Christmas stations that at any time of the year you can get your Christmas fix ;)

Anyway, on one of of these stations I found a link to the follow video title "The Amazing Grace Christmas House - Official Version" its bloody brilliant and if it doesn't make your smile or laugh, then "bah!!! humbug!", nah just kidding :)

Well only 57 sleeps to go till Christmas  :) I wonder what I'm going to get this years from Mrs Clause.....

Take Care All, and seriously hope you enjoyed the video!
