Episode 87 – Christmas in South Africa

Merry Christmas.
It’s another packed episode with all sorts of festive goodness.

First up we have a change from our regular quiz format.  Our American-Scandinavian correspondent Benji Pearson has sent in a quiz about Christmas in Scandinavia and, spoiler alert, it’s a tricky one.

Then Bob Baker gives us a lovely suggestion on how to make the most of Christmas in July with it’s lovely summer Christmas music.

Then I have an interview with a friend of my family, Jade, who spent the first 14 years of her life in South Africa.  She tells us about the differences between a South African Christmas and ones in her new home in the UK.

Then Bob returns and we discuss the use of the word ‘Brilliant’.
It’s…….
very good.  (see what I did there).
