Christmas is just around the corner but for some it can be a lonely time. Euan hears about a Scottish Government campaign called Don't Wrap Up This Christmas which aims to encourage farmers to talk about what's on their mind.

Euan and Mark try their hand at winter foraging with Moica Wilde. Is there really anything you can eat in the forest at this time of year?

50 years ago in Scotland we might not have been getting quite as excited about Christmas as we are today. Farmer George Skinner of Pitcaple in Aberdeenshire tells Helen Needham why.

Back in the summer Euan had a conversation with a stone. We revisit that gem of radio.

Goose, turkey, duck or goat? Not the obviously option for Christmas but one farm in Angus have been having surprising success selling goat for people to eat over the festive period.

Do you believe in the Loch Ness Monster? In April Mark met a lady who swore she saw the creature in the 1930s. We listen to her story again.

Euan wades through folklore and tradition to find out about the origins of Santa Claus.

In between indulging in some serious midwinter feasting over the next week, maybe we should take some time out to enjoy observing what our feathered friends are up to. Helen finds out what we should keep our eye out for from the RSPB.

We're joined live in the festive car park by storyteller Grace Banks who gives us a winter tale or two.

And we look back at our favourite soundscapes of the year including Euan's soundscape and a crackling fire.
