Noddy's in the Money.

[Alex N]

Must be funny for Noddy to be out and about, hear himself shout ‘IT’S CHRRIIISSTTMMAAASSSSSSSS’ for the umpteenth time, before thinking ‘Another pound for me.’

What was the most recent persistent Christmas hit? It’s been decades from what I recall.

Ariana Grande’s ‘Santa Tell Me’ is from 2014. Charts every year, has a quarter of a billion views on YouTube, and I guess you might say you’ve never heard (of) it.

Up to yesterday I hadn’t heard ‘That Slade Song’ this year.

Thank goodness.

Then last night, in the pub for about 2 &1/2 hours, it kept coming round.
My friend got up and unplugged the Sonos speaker.
Fortunately he’s friends with the Landlord...
