Big Gee's music thread

[Kayleigh]

The days of my rock-n-roll lifestyle are long gone but, at this time of year, my powerchair is fully charged-up and I'm ready to rock around the Christmas tree ...

... with Brenda Lee ...

... then, it's all round to Mrs Brown's, for a festive comedtree (including some barking-mad trimmings)....

Meanwhile, this Celtic woman in Dublin has staged her Christmas tree to be a beautiful treet ...

... but, to be frank, Betty's tree has been trimmed far short of expectations ...

... and while Welshmen trim their tree with promises to be home for Christmas ...

... the King of Rock-n-Roll branches out with soothing sounds of silver bells ...

Thank you for you kind messages Dina, Debbie and Sheila - I hope you and your loved ones have a very enjoyable Christmas. xx

The clip posted by Dina brought back memories of watching the Goodies on TV - and the shaggy dog in the picture reminded me of a pre-school TV programme I loved watching in the 1970's ... but I'd forgotten how cheeky Dougal used to be! ...

... a nostalgic ride back to the days when advent calendars were sweet enough (without needing to contain chocolate!) and the toys requested in letters to Santa were entertaining enough (without needing to be very expensive & high tech!) ...

... and, in those days, Rudolph would have just followed his red nose (rather than using Sat Nav LOL) and on Christmas Eve, children went to sleep and didn't take a peek until daybreak (as the online 'Santa Tracker' didn't exist!) - and although there are still 2 sleeps until Christmas ... this evening, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with all of you in this fabulous forum family ...

Although we didn't have White Christmas, this festive fairy didn't need The Snowman to be walking in the air ...

http://https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=A1-41Memra0

festive fun fact: Snowmen at the North Pole have a tangerine for their nose (instead of a carrot).
festive fun Question: What does the Scottish Snowman wear under his kilt? LOL...

http://https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3yuPWV_BiiA

... and although 'The Snowman' always melts my heart, it's snow joke that the funniest Snowman is O'Laf-a-minute ...

Wishing everyone a warm and cosy evening.

Love,
Kayleigh x

P.S ....

...Answer to the festive fun Question: Snowballs LOL

[Kayleigh]

I'm in the mood for some Afternoon Tea ...

... followed by a sweet treat ... dedicated to the Forum Family's Sugar Daddy ...

Hi Myrtle;

I'm thinking that Graham will like this one.

Love Terry

In this forum family we are all saints (apart from Graham, who can be a cheeky little devil sometimes LOL) ..

In the light of the current world crisis I am reminded of this song which as a 17 year old when it was released in 1969 was poignant. With hindsight the lyrics should have advanced decades rather than millennia.

I noticed that Kayleigh was the last person to post on this thread before me and I still think of her often.

[Doug Carpenter]

[Doug Carpenter]

Thanks Graham!

Didn’t know it.

So appropriate.

Fantastic video and audio. The shot of the buttes in Monument Valley brought back memories of a long Colorado, Arizona, Utah road trip.
