Showing posts with the label band aid

6th December 2019

It's now the 16th anniversary of us getting one of these cards, this year's arrived yesterday: The Staples moved out in 2004 and we still forward the card every year. Maybe one day they will tell their friend they have moved house. Or the card will stop coming and that would also be sad. 2004 was also the year a re-recorded Christmas Number One had some ill-advised rapping on it. And unlike the first re-recording, it didn't feature every artist in the Stock Aitken Waterman stable. Yes, it's Band Aid 20. Sugababes! Coldplay! DIDO!! Crank up the volume, dance round the office, it's Video Friday!

Competition time: If you watch the video of Band Aid (the 1984 original above) around the 2:30 mark, two babies shake hands! You could win a gift selection, including party props and a Carluccio cracker, if you can name them both! If no one gets that right, then anyone who can correctly name one baby goes into the draw. Don't put you answers in the comments, instead email them to adamcreen@hotmail.com before 31st December. The winner will be drawn from the set of correct answers. Good luck!
