Skybet are already offering bets on the winner of x-factor 2009 becoming Christmas Number One next year at odds of 1-4.

I am officially pleading with the nation, please don’t make this happen. 4 years running is bad enough but 5 would be too much.

During 2009 I will be selecting a song at random and starting an online campaign to get said song to number one. Please people when the time comes buy that song and not the pap Simon Cowell has banged out.

You know it makes sense!

Get into the Christmas spirit a whole month and a half early with this video rendition of the “12 days of Chavmas”. The only thing missing from the list of gifts of course is an MP3 phone without headphones

It is now the longest time possible before it is Christmas again. And even better next year is a leap year so I get an extra day. Hurrah!
