Some non-cheesy Christmas songs for your festive enjoyment.

Oh and I saw The Bluetones last week, one of my favourite bands. It was reaaaaally good. More on that later!

Oh HTML, how I love thee.

I'm filled with, as Blur might say, an enormous sense of wellbeing. Perhaps I should've done web design at uni. There's really nothing better than getting your HTML tags nicely sorted and your website a myriad of beautiful colours.

So, as this is supposed to be a non-personal (when do I ever refrain from talking about moi?!) blog, here is a little song for anyone (ie like 3 people) who may be reading this and thinking 'wow, Caroline actually has no life'.

Fountains of Wayne- Sink to the Bottom. This is off Fountains of Wayne's self-titled 1996 debut album- yes, they were around before they tainted their image with Stacey's horrific mother- and it's really nice I think. They've changed a lot since then, so here's an example of their latest offerings, from their 2007 album Traffic and Weather, which everyone should definitely buy as it's brilliant: Fountains of Wayne- 92 Subaru.

Songs will expire after one week. Please right click and choose 'save as' and don't stream them or my bandwidth will turn your mum into a pumpkin.

Ok, enjoy, I'm off to wash my hair. x

P.S. I finally figured out what was wrong with my Last FM scrobbling program- it was trying to connect through my old Lancaster IP, so it's fixed and fine now, check it out here! Please ignore any embarrassing songs though...
