This Turf

It’s all about colours, those we like, those we hate and those we’d be happy never to see again.  Also Dora calls her parents by their first name and is not -generally- a fan of clubbing.

The Christmas Special no one asked for... again. We had a great time making up words and phrases for Christmassy moods and feelings... again. BUT what was the christmas gift of the year in 1996? 2011? 2019? This Turf investigates.

The Christmas Special no one asked for. We had a great time making up words and phrases for Christmassy moods and feelings, and we think it's addressing a necessary service, especially Aaron's distaste towards dried fruit.  Julmust https://www.scandinaviastandard.com/what-is-julmust-all-about-the-swedish-christmas-soda/ Mince Pie History https://blog.english-heritage.org.uk/recipe-for-real-mince-pies/ It's a Wonderful Life https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0038650/ Tweet us @thisturf or email this@turf.fm Find out more at http://turf.fm
