Thanks to a wonderful email from a site visitor, I’ve not put up a page in the cultures section for Trinidad and Tobago.
I love adding new pages to the site!
I’ve just put up a new page with some bad Christmas themed ‘cracker jokes’.
If you know some that aren’t on there (and are clean…), please contact me or leave a comment, so I can add them to the page!
Ed over at podsafechristmas.com has just started the shows for this Christmas, brilliant!!!

Ishmael (or Ish to his friends!) is a wonderful man at the forefront of kids ministry and music. He had a big influence on my when I was younger (I’m three times glorie, a badge of honour if your ‘of an age’!).
Ish has got some great Christmas offers this year and I’d like to share them with you.
Ish has got a new book out ‘A year according to Ish’ and if you buy it now you get his ‘Christmas Carol Celebration’ CD (worth £7.50) for free! What a great Christmas deal!
There’s another offer on the Christmas CD as well, you can get the ‘Christmas Carol Celebration’ CD and the ‘It’s Christmas’ CD both for £10.
Go on, get one, you know you want to!
Keep up the great work and Happy Christmas Ish!
There’s a rather unusual competition happening in my part of the world today: http://www.wookey.co.uk/bigeat/
Now I love a mince pie, but I don’t think I could eat 48 in an hour!!!
