Hello, I hope all is groovy, it's well groovy here - I spent last night making all the Santa's Grotto mix CDs whilst watching Trading Places, which is without doubt one of my top Christmas movies. And it's still only the 14th of December.

There are two new new 50p offerings on the Festive 50p page, including the very hard to find Ferrante & Teicher's Adventure In Carols album which is brilliantly bonkers. All 50p Festive larks are here.

Also, there is a short repress of the legendary Clangers TV Soundtrack LP (it got 10/10 in the NME when I first released it in 2001). There is a whole new and eager vinyl market out there that may well have missed it back then (when vinyl wasn't cool at all) so I've made it available again for a brief moment and it's very Christmassy too. And all pastoral and spacey. The new Clangers repress on vinyl only (and there is only 600 of them) is here ALONG WITH THE OTHER TWO NEW AMAZING TRUNK LPS.

Thanks to everyone who bought a Pagan Cornflakes print, they are being sent out today. There are just 3 W*nkie Birds prints left and just a handful of superb new tees and Vision On things too. All can be found here.

Thanks to everyone who came to Dirty Fan Male on Tuesday. You know who you are and you know what you saw.

And also thank you to all who sent me strange videos this week: this incredible festive Fresca advert with Gary McFarland (I LOVE Gary). And there is also this infectious Ska version of The Final Countdown (BY EUROPE) from Robin the Harmonica player (and his band Baked Ala Ska). More about him another time.  

I'm now off to post out all the Santa's Grotto mixes, to collect the Pagan Cornflake Prints and get them all sent, walk the dog and make a Pavlova. And not just any old pavlova, this has to be shaped like a Christmas wreath. And then I'm going to eat it. And then lie down.

Thanks for listening

Jonny
