A very happy and peaceful Christmas to all, whether you’re dressing up for it (or down, in Carmen’s case) or not!

Someone else got there before me to say it, but Anne Sheehy’s impression of Finbarr Furey is just uncannily good.

I hope Santa is good to everyone and that you don’t suffer from Orla Houlihan’s ability to go from the Nice list…

…..to the Naughty list – in no time at all.

She doesn’t seem to mind, though.

Remember, be good because Santa is watching wherever you go (Gordon was up to something here, you can see the look on his face when he spotted Santa’s eyes on him….).

Finally, spare a thought for those less fortunate at this time of year.  Like the Harris family – shocked by the latest revelations from Australia… 

Merry Christmas!  Lots going to the beach on Christmas Day, I’m sure.

08.15 St. Stephen’s Day AND 12.00 on St. Stephen’s Day to help out Liam Maher with his U12s fundraiser.  Then the normal 08.15 on Saturday.

As Gary Frost said, it’s hard to tell that we’re Winter swimming as we’re getting in more often than the Summer 🙂
