Where have you been hiding Dave? Merry Christmas to you and Jo. Cheers.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

It's been hectic Geoff... The big ends went in the sleigh this morning and the elves have been running themselves ragged trying to find a workshop which could fix it this side of Christmas. Rudolph has come down with the flu - oddly his nose appears paler than usual. Mrs Claus suddenly declared last night (after all these yearsWhere have you been hiding Dave? Merry Christmas to you and Jo. Cheers.) that she hates me working nights!!! I ask you, one bloody night a year, it's not much to ask, is it?
Merry Christmas Geoff...

Playing this on vinyl - the recent reissue.
Funnily enough it starts off in the frozen tundra of the Arctic, with the exploits of a chap called Nanook, and advising folk not to eat yellow snow.
Did you pass him on your travels Dave?
