It's getting closer to Christmas. As we say in Ireland, it's only 8 sleeps away. Time to get serious. Carols are, in my opinion, one of the best things about Christmas. I'm not talking about those new ones, I'm talking serious stuff here, all the old ones, sung by (proper) choirs.

It's freezing (again) in Dublin, and the snow is on its way. Perfect time to wrap all my presents by the fire, drink (more) mulled wine and listen to Carols. On Repeat.

Today's choice is God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen!

(sidenote: I def think it's possible to enjoy carols without being religious)

"8 sleeps"... Totally going to start using that term!

Yes! Bring it stateside! It's a little childish, but wholly appropriate for counting down Christmas!
