Listen to me and My Guide to Christmas...

Hope you enjoy and would love feedback from My show.

Merry Christmas.

Just I-playered it. Twas good, the in-law tips especially! A couple I wasn't so sure about (anagrams, icicles!) Also, not sure if this was your department but I though we heard a tad too much from the jingle machine, but a great idea and overall really good! :)

Had the Tinsel Takeover on in the background for most of Christmas Day, generally it was generally pretty good. Some rubbish shows but that probably because it sounded like they'd been recorded down a telephone.

Listened back to yours on iPlayer, you sounded very good, particularly liked the idea of using letters of your name to describe Christmas.

Is it just me? That sounds awful.

Don't be so mean to the poor girl, first time on radio with original ideas. Not a bad effort at all I'd say!

He wasn't being mean, I don't think he's heard the show so he wasn't commenting on that. It was just the trite cheesiness of "using the letters of your name to describe Christmas" - however well it might actually have worked, he's right, put like that it sounds awful.

Ok fair point, it worked better than the idea actually sounded.

There's a discussion on the Tinsel Takeover in the 'BBC Radio 1 2010' topic, should the two discussions be merged?

I'm new to posting, hopefully on of you super-posters can advise?

Depends who you want to talk to about it really. I don't think the same people post in the two places so its up to you.
