ventaIt is the time of year where one is obliged to give thanks to Shane McGowan and Kirsty MacColl. When shops are playing Frosty the Snowman and Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree on some kind of homicide-inducing loop, there is exactly one non-execrable Christmas Song.
And, owing to checking a spelling there, I have just learnt that execrable and excreable are different words.
