That was good fun! #12 had me stumped so I'm glad you provided the answers, otherwise I'd be up all night googling Christmas carols to try and find the answer.

Yes, I've never heard of 12, and so was grateful for the answers. Missed a couple of others, ah well. A good brain tester.

Bovine is cows, btw. Ovine is sheep.

I liked your idea for the image. Imagine the lads crashing your Christmas party That would be one swinging night! *g*

Great idea for the brain teaser as well. There were a couple I missed and a couple I didn't know, but it was fun working them out.

Thank you for the picture and the icon! Doyle looks a bit fed up; I bet Bodie's been saying that for, oh, an hour or more now... *g*

Heh, and working out the carols was great fun! I particularly liked #10 and #16. Brilliant. Thank you!

What brilliant song titles! I only got about half, but it was a lot of fun.

[dawnebeth.livejournal.com]

Those titles are hysterical! I got nearly all, giggling the entire time.

Love the picture and taking the icon. Thank you!

LJ is driving me nuts. *sigh* If my other posts appears, ignore this one or that one!

Thanks for the great pic and icon. The titles drove me nuts. I'm worthless at that sort of thing but it was fun. :)

That was fun, thank you - there were a couple I've never even heard of, and spent ages trying to work out - doh!

Love the picture too!

[cloudless-9193.livejournal.com]

Cool picture and icon! And your alternate titles are hilarious. :-)

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Hee - the party's definitely here! *g*

And hee for the song titles too - like KWS I'd never heard of #12, and I'm also amused and interested to see that #10 has made it into a list where the other carols are more traditional. Fun to work out (where I could... *g*) - thank you!

I think I need to get out more! I couldn't answer that many but thank you for the icons.

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

Lovely pic!

And thanls for the game!
Party on!

[maddalia.livejournal.com]

Nice pics, and your game was great fun! No.4 made me laugh out loud. Thanks for sharing these!

[golden-bastet.livejournal.com]

LOL at the game!

# 12 & 18 stumped me (actually haven't heard of 12 either), and now I have an urge to warn my maternal parent to avoid corpulent unshaven males in crimson disguise...

[solosundance.livejournal.com]

Love the pic and icon, thank you - perfect for the season! Erm, much too far gone by this stage of the holiday to even attempt the game in full, but I did like "embellish the corridors" which has a ring of Ezra about it :)
