I can honestly remember in the summer thinking how far away Christmas was. It was a lovely, sunny day and I distinctly remember thinking that winter felt a long way off.
It took quite a while to get cold this year so until recently it hadn't really felt like Winter had arrived at all.
Now, all of a sudden we are almost a third of the way through December, and there is talk of snow on the mountains.
The children at the various schools in the land are all getting excited now and on radio one they have the North Star Caller. This is such a sweet feature. Father Christmas phones a young listener and basically talks to them about Christmas and what they would like for Christmas. They have such lovely conversations. it is so cute and also funny. One of the young listeners told Father Christmas he would like a chainsaw for Christmas. I think he was about 4 years old! let's hope he doesn't receive that particular gift!
