A sheep, a werewolf and a walrus walk into a bar.

Join me tonight at 8 for the reveal of the Christmas Sheep.

Get dressed you merry gentlemen...



(If you've never listened to Cabin Pressure you really should. It's quite possibly the finest sitcom ever created!)

Will be looking at Four Lives tonight so I will miss the start of the Reveal. Hopefully I will catch up with it later.

I forgot that was on.    It's been good so far, Stephen Merchant's character is very creepy. Anne is on ITV as well tonight it's great too but you can +1 it, unlike the beeb.
The Tourist is another good one on BBC, there's a lot of quality drama on terrestrial just lately.

On second thoughts I will bring the reveal up to 8 o clock tonight so I can get to watch the show too.

Bring on the festivities ...

I've saved my chocolate gingerbread men for tonight!

Please help yourselves to a mince pie and some mulled wine while you are waiting. I have lit the fire if any Foggy wants to warm themselves.

I would trample over a dozen people for some mulled wine by an open fire right now!

That fire looks tops Butty, your too kind. 

Twas bloody bitter leaving work this evening 

Looking forward to this. I love a game of Sheep!

God dang it, I love Fairytale Of New York, but didn't think it would be the most obvious choice

No suprises there as Fairytale sheeps. Love it or hate it, it's one of the best known Christmas songs.

Next round is a gift for gents. What did you vote for?
This maybe?

A popular gift to give... not necessarily to receive

Next up was a gift for a woman. What would she like I wonder?
Chocolate? Candles? Why not combine them?

 Woohoo, didn't realise that would have Sheeped at all 





So the big question now is, is it actually acceptable to give socks or are most of us just a bunch of cheapskates?

Aaaww yeah!!! 

Depends on the socks... If someone got me doctor who socks, then best present ever. Generic pennies socks, maybe not.

A whopping sheep for another old reliable.
Deja and Sephiroth bring the bling while Neo and Nothing make a sweet gesture

If someone bought me perfume, I'd ask them to change it for socks!

Next was another name for Santa Claus.

Sorry, the scores first.
