Ran the gauntlet at Tesco this morning. Plenty festive tunes but not That One.

Still in, so far. School arts festival this evening so if I hear it it’ll not count on account of being scratched out by the strings of the junior orchestra. Feeling confident….

I’m lucky in that I work from home so choosing not to listen to the radio.

Will be dangerous tonight when I go to the supermarket!

Survived the Christmas markets in Munich, though I wasn't worried!

57.5 Days of Xmas
Survived assorted airports. There was some 80s music at Newark but nothing Xmassy.

I went shopping in Whitehaven and can’t remember hearing any Christmas music. Also went to Tesco where I must have shut everything off as I don’t remember any kind of music being played whist I was shopping. I didn’t realise until I got back in the car and the radio was on. Still in 😁

40 years, a bloody life sentence with no parole that. Surely after that length of time we should be spared further punishment and allowed to rehabilitate ourselves.

I wonder if I’ve been hit every one of those 40 years….

Quiet day today. There was one christmas song as I walked through reception earlier but the radio has been off every other time I've wandered through. I think my zoom French class tonight should be a safe space.

About This Thread

Maintained by Sigh
GOOGLE SHEET HERE:

docs.google.com

Sheet for 2024 is on the first tab; you update your own entry. As with previous years, we're also tracking the number of repeated 'hits' for those who are out before the end (if you want to).

Who's up for the challenge then? whamageddon.com

"The 1st Rule
The objective is to go as long as possible without hearing WHAM's Christmas classic; "Last Christmas".

The 2nd Rule
The game starts on December 1st, and finishes at the end of December 24th.
Use your local timezone, if you'd like.

The 3rd Rule
Only the original version applies.

The 4th Rule
You're out as soon as you recognise the song.

Player vs Player?
While we can't stop you from deliberately sending your friends to Whamhalla, the intention is that this is a survival game. Not a Battle Royale. So ... don't be a dick, okay?"
