Advantages: funny and gentle Disadvantages: slight
After doing even tiny bit of research I realised that I must be the only person out there who ever read "Tim the Tiny Horse" having never heard of the author. Thus, I have to take another reviewer's word that it's "typical Harry Hill" and will make an attempt at reviewing Tim as a stand-alone.
I am happy to say that it acquits itself well. Tim is a horse, blue and so tiny that he lives in matchbox with a tic-tac box for a conservatory. A single Hoola-Hoop makes his lunch (he prefers barbecue beef flavour) and a fly (called Fly) is his best friend. Tim doesn't do much - apart from a few not very successful attempts at making it big in the media he seems to spend his days watching television and socialising with Fly.

I'll give them credit though, once in a while I've taken a look on the back cover, yes despite the fact that I already own it, to find that two more songs have been added which I particularily enjoy. Making it exceedingly difficult for me to not buy it again.
CD 1 has all the memorable tracks. Songs which I remember always being played at the end of term school christmas party. Sadly the edition I have does not inclue Whams' Last Christmas. Which I distinctively remember being a favourite at the time!
Happy Xmas (War is Over), Do They Know It's Christmas?, Merry Xmas Everybody, I ...
