Christmas 1968
I didn’t think I’d have time to enter this month’s competition as I’m really busy rehearsing the role of Frank in Willy Russell’s ‘Educating Rita’. The original actor had to pull out and I stepped in with four weeks to go and we open next Friday.
Anyway, Gerry my wife, reminded me about this song from December 2021, it’s from my Val Doonican period and if you like your songs a little saccharin then this is ideal.
Keiko, the dog, slept through it all.
Beautiful song Ian , really lovely !
It’s funny listening to this in the sweltering heat of June 2023! Lovely song Ian. 👏
Lovely song Ian. Thank goodness you remembered the chocolate. Great memories👍😁
Keiko! It’s sweet how our dogs love to be there when we are singing. This is very lovely song and I can see kids mesmerized by it in the Christmas season, listening with cups of cocoa.
A lovely, gentle song. The whole performance is perfect with the Christmas lights, woodburning and sleeping dog 😃
Yes, you have set the scene and you sing it beautifully
Really lovely song Ian. Always love your guitar style. Best of luck with the play!
Lovely stuff Ian. Very relatable lyrics, well sung and played. I was however, expecting you to be wearing a big knitted cardigan. Hope Rita is going well 👍
Lovely.
That’s fab Ian, my dog leaves the room when I start singing!!!!!
