We didn’t get around to it this year, but C wanted to make our own Christmas cards and these people seemed reasonable. (Greetings cards have full colour glossy fronts and can be printed with your design or logo.)

The best Pogues album?
Mark Radcliffe tells us that the competition for The Pogues best album is between The Pogues – If I Should Fall From Grace With God and The Pogues – Rum Sodomy & the Lash.
On careful and repeated listening, I have to prefer The Pogues – Rum Sodomy & the Lash. To me the songs seem more raw, the music more passionate and wonderfully ragged round the edges. The two opening songs are superb, and contrast brilliantly. The Pogues – The Sick Bed of Cuchulainn smashes in, and The Pogues – The Old Main Drag sucks you down. Brilliant stuff.
The prize for best song though has to go to The Pogues – Fairytale of New York, with Kirsty MacColl, which is a great mix of the maudlin and a drinking party. One song it’s worth looking forward to Christmas for.
Most perplexing
How come Ramalama [Bang Bang] is less than a tenth as popular as Sow into You? I mean Sow is good, but Ramalama is great… the stand-out track on Ruby Blue by Róisín Murphy.
Nifty Rounded Corners
Rounded corners using JS and CSS, a really neat solution. (If you don’t mind using JS.)
