The Welsh (Christmas) Phrase of the Week
The Welsh – Dymunwn Nadolig Llawen
The Phonetical – Dy-minwn Nad-olig Ll-awen
The English – We wish you a Merry Christmas
After trying to pronounce the Welsh Phrase of the week, Dion awarded Welsh Learner of the Year to Ash Kierans
With the game show of the year award going to Cameron Ward!
Dion, Cam, Ash, George, Dan and whoever else we can find, what’s happening you ask?
Check out mine and Georges Snowman!!! We left the studio for a Snowball fight, a bit of ‘Snow Graffiti’, and we also built our brand new friend & supporter bellow

And here you can see Georges Art/Graffiti…

We had the BigFatQuiz of 2010
In Which the scores ended up
Dancer – 7 – Cam
Blitzen – 7 – Dion
Donner – 5 – George
Prancer – 3 – Scott
After the tense tiebreaker in which we had ANOTHER draw, they each missed the target answer by 2
We moved to a second tiebreaker, for how many weeks had Snow Patrol remained in the UK Singles chart with Chasing Cars the answer being 89 weeks, and Cameron won the quiz with the closest guess…
Team Cracker Won Noel Noise, in a close 3-2 battle with Team Bauble!
Ash & Dion taking the final points recognising the sound of somebody walking in the snow!

Scott & George fought hard but came runner up
Wrapping Challenge, you guessed it we had a challenge to find out who amongst us was the fastest Christmas Present Wrapper
The Winner of that was Cameron Ward
Most Economical was Ash Kierans, and he also took the award for Best Wrapped Present.
Pictures/Videos to come soon…
Shot or Not - The game where I name shots/shooters and the contestants have to guess correctly as to whether its real or not or be eliminated!
After the second round Dan, Scott, Dion were eliminated for believing B52 was not a shot.
The final contestents George & Cam were caught out with two wrong answers but in the interests of finding a winner we carried on until George beat Scott, with Scott believing Deep Blue Sea was a real shooter.
Cracker Blitz – Sound clips to follow shortly ;)
To all of our listeners on this Marathon Day, The Breakfast in Bed & Skive Time teams would like to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy new year, and hope to find you listening again in 2011!!
