Do they know it's NEARLY Xmas time?

I don't know why, but I'm starting to feel very Christmassy. I think it's probably because the Christmas tv guide came free with the Mirror newspaper today. Despite the fact that most of the schedules feature a show called "To Be Confirmed".

Anyhow, it got us talking about the one thing that marks the start of Christmas for you. Many people said the Coca Cola ad, although the Budweiser and Penneys ads got mentions too. Lots of people talked about putting their tree up (including one listener who had theirs up since Halloween!). For me, it was all about hearing that phrase, which I heard for the first time about ten days ago... "if I don't see you, have a lovely Christmas"

We'll be officially launching Christmas on Tuesday morning's show (December 1st - the general consensus on when it should start). I'm getting the Christmas songs ready! We also have our Christmas toy show all next week, and I'll have news of our massive Christmas Eve party - which will be taking place in Wexford this year.

Voting continues for Runaway Bride today. I'm starting to get quite excited by it now. As you may be aware, I will be chaperoning one of the brides, so I don't have a clue where I am going to be this Sunday! Keep voting at the Beat website.

Random Video of the Day is a real gem. This was released by the Henson Group a couple of days back, and already has had over 3.2 million hits on youtube.



Some other stuff from today's show....
Vinny's Big Hard One
Clue:
You can have me, but you cannot hold me. Gain me and quickly lose me. If treated with care, I can be great, but if not, I will break.
Ans: Trust

Going For A Song
Clue:
Serial killer Fred's existence... questions the present.
The answer is here.

We have all the regular Friday stuff tomorrow... TFI Friday, Get It Off Your Chest, Cheese or No Cheese and Free Fruit Friday!
