    Day two is over folks. It was a three horse race all day, very nip and tuck. If you weren't on one of these three I'm afraid you may be in trouble...

    I was debating between Fairytale Of New York and Last Christmas on this one, and I knew I should've gone with the Pogues, but some otherworldly force compelled me to vote Wham and not turn my back on them as Last Christmas is my Christmas Karaoke go to...

    Morning elves! Welcome to day three of the Forum Games Sheep Advent Calendar

    LikableSorrowfulKingsnake-size_restricted.gif

    Today we're going to stick with the Christmas songs theme. Yesterday bubblypop and LeftSheepRight picked this as their Christmas pop song...

    Do_They_Know_It%27s_Christmas_single_cover_-_1984.jpg

    ...but I want to know how well you remember it (or how well you can google it!)

    Question 3: Name one of the singers on Band Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas?"

    6pm deadline again.
    New players still welcome.
    And don't forgot your Christmas Star!

    Lunchtime bump

    30/38 answers in :)


    Just thinking - if anyone misses three days in a row I'll drop them from the list, ensure the wooden spoon is a fair fight ;)
    Hopefully it won't happen, and I can easily add people back in if they reappear

    Time's up folks!

    We had a massive sheep this round, a clear second and a couple that the sun will go down on I'm afraid

    Were you on one of these three...?
