First show of 2012, after taking a podcasting break during the rather depressing month of January! Two tracks recorded very locally, plus two from a little further afield. News of Santa, running and why I've been off the bike for a bit.

My Tiny Robots - Guild of Defiants
The Lost Patrol - Dead or Alive / The Road Is Long

*Cue Noddy Holder shriek* IT'S CHRISTMAAAAAAAAS!!!! on Three From Leith, as festive fun & frivolity (and not a little vintage mulled wine) share the studio on a balmy December afternoon and jolly Mr M gets into the spirit of the season. Have a very Merry Christmas, one and all – but please be sure to accompany it with a blast of Three From Leith!

It's “Ladies' Night” this week on Three From Leith, as sheer coincidence meant that the third artist arrived just in time to finally complete the trio that had been sitting forlornly as a duo for weeks. I really love it when shows come together like that, quite by surprise.

Time to head north of the border for this show, featuring three new Scottish bands – one of which has featured before, but the other two are TFL virgins! As well as the great new music, there's some great news. You'll have to listen to find out what that is, of course...

Well, the laptop is alive again and just to prove it, I'm writing the shownotes on it once more from the comfort of the settee on a Sunday night! It's strange, all of this podcast timeshifting; recording on a Friday based on music selections I've received in the past, with a playlist I have roughly decided in advance, then shownoting it for a release date that's in the future (as a write). So – enjoy the music of the future from your pal in the past. Oh, and are we all using personal jetpacks & eating dinners in pill form yet?
