The Christmas Links

A place is needed so people can easily reference stories of my drunken attempt to return to Ireland one Christmas, and some nostalgic and cultural references about Christmas in Ireland. Or America. Or Sweden for that matter.

And for the videos.

Yes it is. And this is it.

Because Christmas isn’t just for Christmas.
