1. Preaching six sermons or more on Christmas themes (various verses thus year)
2. Singing most of the Christmas hymns in our hymn book
3. Watching the film Elf starring Will Ferrell (tonight I hope)
4. Watching University Challenge Christmas Special on TV
5. Reading the novel Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens (50 pages read so far)
6. Reading some Christmas detective fiction (A Dramatic Christmas this year)
7. Going through a book of devotions from December 1-24 or 25 (this year Joel Beeke and 31 readings)
8. Burning down an advent candle December 1-24 (a red one again this year, a bit too thin)
9. Going to see Kate Rusby and her band doing one of their Christmas concerts (really enjoyed that)
10. Listening to lots of Christmas music (I now have 671 items in my collection)
