Having heard the Band Aid 20 single for the second time last night (in ASDA, followed by the earliest 'Silent Night' I have ever experienced), it still hasn't begun to sink in that there are people starving in the world. Maybe I need Dido, Keane et al to really pummel the message home, get a bit raw and overemotional.
Maybe we ought to let the hungry know it's Christmastime by sending them videos of ads asking us to spend millions on our rich relatives, and on enough food and drink to burst our ever expanding guts.
'There's a world outside your window. And it's a world of dread and fear.'
Yes. Yes. The world of dread and fear is Christmas itself and I can't bloody avoid it.
