It's been another great year for Irish
Boyband Westlife. Singer Nicky Byrne
reckons it's going to be a good
Christmas too.
So are you a fan of Christmas?
"I really love it. I wish that it
could happen more than once a year. I
felt like that as a kid and I don't
think thats ever going to change. It's
the one time of year we always make
sure we get off."
What do you want for Christmas this
year?
"To be honest there's not much I want
or need. My family say it's always a
nightmare buying for me. I know it may
sound cheesy but it's just enough for
me to be with my family."
What is the best Christmas you've had?
"That would be in 2002. My wife and I
got engaged on Christmas morning, we
had just moved into a new house and
had a new dog. That was a great year."
What is the worst present you've ever
had?
"It seems when you get older that more
and more people buy you socks. I guess
they're useful but they're not the
most exciting presents in the world."
Do you rate yourself as a present
buyer?
"I really try to put a bit of thought
into it when I buy people presents.
I'm lucky that I have the money to be
able to spoil, and that's great."
What's the secret to a good Christmas
day?
"I like to go for a few pints on
Christmas eve with my old mates from
back home. That's a tradition we've
had now for years. We not not drink as
much as we used to because several of
us have kids but it's still good fun."
Who is your tip for Christmas number
one?
"Well it looks certain to be Leona and
good on her. She's got an amazing
voice and I hope it's the first of
many for her. We've only had one
Christmas number one single and it's
an amazing feeling. We're in with a
chance of getting the number one
album. We've never done that before so
that would be a brilliant end of the
year."
So does Westlife star Nicky Byrne have
any New year's resolutions?
"I never see the point in making those
because I can never manage to keep
them. I don't smoke or anything like
that so there's nothing I really need
to give up. Perhaps I could drink a
little less, but you've got to have
some vices in your life. I might try
to eat healthier, but it will be
pretty hard to quit those fry-ups."
