Can you believe it is just 1 week away? Well, yes if you look at the calendar.

Not exactly a Christmas song but one of my favourite songs at this time of year.

To sidetrack the thread briefly, I don't listen to a lot of Tom Waits, but this is one of my favourite songs of all time.

1 day to go, in honour of the great Melbourne tradition of Carols by Candlelight, held annually on Christmas Eve.

Cheers Randall, a good day here if a bit hot for my liking.

Looking forward to the cricket tomorrow.

Just a heads up, Captain Hobo.
Heard that if Maria Carey sees her shadow, we get 6 more weeks of Christmas songs.

Mariah Carey unfortunately did not make the cut.

But don't worry, I listen to Christmas songs all year.

Thank you mate.

It was good last year. There's tons more Bob Dylan Christmas stuff to dig up if nothing else...
