It's Christmas time. And, according to Band Aid's spurious claim, there's no need to be afraid. So, here we are to let in light and banish shade during one of the most joyous/stressful times of the year.
Just me and Tim this time, giving our tips for sanity retention over the Christmas period.
Plus:
• A fascinating educational moment where everyone learns about the celestial origins of Christmas.
• Some men occasionally clanging scaffolding in the background.
