00:01:28 Predictions for the year gone by – and the one to come!
00:13:53 What would go in a conservation Christmas tree?

Hurry Down the Chimney Tonight (text by Kloe Rumsey, Benjamin Fox, and Jenny Mathiasson; vocals by Desislava Zlateva)
Funding bodies, slip a table under the tree for me
Been working so hard
Funding bodies, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Funding bodies, Paraloid B72, as well
I’ll wait up for you all
Funding bodies, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the things I’ve fixed
Think of all those pastes that I have mixed
Next year I’ll be just as good
If you check off my Christmas list
Funding bodies, I want some CPD and that’s not a lot
Been so patient all year
Funding bodies, please hurry down the chimney tonight
Budget holders, one little thing I really need, some books
To inform me all year
Budget holders, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Budget holders, fill my stocking with an AmEx and cheques
Let’s get permission to spend
Budget holders, hurry down the chimney tonight
Come and stock my lab for me
With some paper stocks that are acid free
I really do believe you could
Keep us going if you would
Budget holders, forgot to mention one little thing, packing
Crates for all those loans
Budget holders, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry… Tonight
