'The Twelve Days Of Christmas'

'The Twelve Days Of Christmas' is a traditional song that warms the heart of both young and old. With its simple lyrics it is one of those songs that is fun to sing with all the family at Christmas. You don't have to be a great singer to take part and if you have a bit of imagination you can even 'adapt' the song to suit your own personal subject.

This is exactly what Shorelink Community Writers decided to do a few years back for part of their Christmas show. The video from the performance has long been a source of amusement within Shorelink because some of those who had taken part in rehearsals couldn't make it on the day and so the remaining 'players' had to make do and fill in here and there. Well, as you can see from this video, we were all doing a sterling job until about half way through the song and then all hell started to break loose!

I'm sorry that the quality of the video is so poor but the film was shot on a proper video camera and the footage needs to be converted into another format before I can load it into my Mac and edit it. This has just not happened  up until now and so I simply played it on my laptop and filmed it from there. The picture isn't great but you can see and hear whats going on and thats good enough for something that I hope will give you a festive laugh (or three)...

It is blowing a gale and peeing with rain here AGAIN so I venture that watching silly videos like this is going to be as near as I get to enjoying myself at present!
