    Here's today's question, it's another music one:

    What Year was Band Aid's version of Do They Know It's Christmas No. 1 in the UK?

    For my international friends (it's in the 80's)!!!

    I missed posting a question yesterday as reality got in the way so I'll post two today and give you the answers tomorrow.

    More musical questions (I'm taking these from a real Advent Calendar and whoever wrote the questions didn't mix them up much!

    Question 1: The song White Christmas was first performed in which 1942 movie?

    Question 2: In the song "The 12 Days of Christmas" 'My true love brought to me nine...' what?

    Good Luck!!!
