I like the idea of doing a tweet. One idea below,
not sure if it's best
to say raising money for The NHS (who we can ping) or just charity.
In the footsteps of @QueenWillRock and @thebeatles @Choir_NHS runs away
with the UK Christmas Number 1 this time raising money for charity!

Agreed. This is one of those unfortunate
situations where I want to like
the video, but its POV-ism prevents that. The videographer in me wants to
edit the ending of that video to make it something that we can promote (:
By the way, Merry Christmas, Joe. (:

Yeah, wouldn't recommend that, though
it's a charity record (albeit one
strongly supporting the public healthcare service in the UK). I'd rather
use one of the facts conveniently located in the "Records" section of that
list.
