The World According to the Peevish Kitty

And Now, A Musical Interlude

I’m out today visiting with my new little nephew. So to keep you all amused until I return…

Quite possibly my all-time favourite Christmas song, “Fairytale of New York” by the Pogues, and featuring the late, great Kirsty MacColl. If you know the song, you know how lovely it is. And if you don’t… well, let’s just say it’s a bit colourful there in the middle, so beware if there are little ears listening.

It’s a beautiful song that makes me a bit welly each time I hear it. And shame, SHAME on the BBC for censoring it this year.

Enjoy.

  3. This is an all-year staple in our house. I’m waiting for the day Weasel asks me to explain some of the more inelegant language.
