When I managed a large staff group, and workers were needed for Christmas day, there was always a queue of people wanting a shift, for many reasons. Where is the problem-why is it shameful? -

Until the licencing laws changed in the late eighties, pubs were only allowed to open Sunday hours on Christmas Day, so 12 'til 2, and the majority didn't open in the evening unless it was for a 'private party'. But that's another story. The landlord of my old local used to let everyone double or treble up at last orders so that you could avoid having to watch the Queen's Speech with your Nans at three o'clock. Dulwich Tandoori is open Christmas Day for those who don't fancy Gail's. 'Festive Flavours', apparently. -
My nominations are the Goblin Band at the Goose, and the Errol Linton Trio at the Dulwich Folk Club. I'm not sure what other venues we have in the immediate area. I rarely do the big (1000 plus) places any more. Your nominations? And a special mention to Truthpaste, at least one member is local and their video was recorded around here. But I caught them in North London. And please see the link to the BBCs recording of the Copper Family at the Castle a few weeks ago~: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m002ng53
