Christmas Eve Tradition- The Shepherd
Here it is again, my annual reminder to my aviating brothers and sisters: CBC will be airing Al Maitland's reading of Frederick Forsyth's classic The Shepherd on December 24, at 18:30hrs. Not to be missed.

Hopefully OFD can ring in with some more info.
A tradition at our house (despite my daughters protestations that it gives her nightmares!) is to gather 'round the tree with a hot cuppa and hear a fantastic tale. I hope you enjoy as much as we do, and Merry Christmas everyone, with Blue Skies and Fair Winds in 2013.

Regrettably Airtids, the Old Fogducker tells me he can no longer make an appearance on the forum after having been banned along with numerous others when the "Water Cooler" was shut down and the forum was "cleaned up."
Perhaps in the spirit of Christmas, someone else will be able to supply a copy of "The Shepherd" for the enjoyment of everyone ... it's an excellent way to spend an hour on Christmas eve, especially so for those with children.

I just downloaded it as a podcast from CBC. Just search "The Shepherd CBC” on iTunes or whichever podcast app you use.
Look forward to listening to it this evening on the way to our holiday dinner!

Re: Christmas Eve Tradition- The Shepherd
^Not me! I'm listening to it 'live' on CBC, if I can hear anything over Foggy's teeth grinding about the drivel coming from our public broadcaster!
