Christmas Crackers

Some of you may remember our attempts at making christmas crackers as an activity a couple of years back.  For those who don't know of this other christmas tradition in England (and are interested, of course), here we have a couple of videos: one showing what the cracker looks like and what things typically come inside and the other showing crackers in use around the christmas meal table.



Updated Christmas Carols

Christmas is soon coming, as we are now constantly reminded by advertising and shop sales.  Christmas carols are traditionally sung from door to door on the days coming to Christmas. On that note, here is a new updated version of the traditional carol 'Silent night' with a beatbox touch. Would be a great pleasure to have these singing at my door!
