4:15 left. This is probably the only one of these I’ve completed successfully in that quickly. I’m really a dork for Christmas.

I got it done in 1:15 since I initially tried to put in a hyphen in “a-swimming” and there are a couple different orders and things I’ve heard for 10-12. Close enough. :)

@Jack: And all that other stuff! :-) Now, that one would be a challenge, I can usually remember 10 of the 11 but not in the right order.

It took me a while because I kept thinking of the Eddie Izzard version: “12 monkeys mating… FIVE GOLDEN RIIIIIINNGGGGSSSS!!!!!

Done in :59 …of course we have the illustrated book at home, and I just read/sang it to my kids last night, so I probably should’ve beaten 59 seconds!

2:59 left on the clock.

I didn’t even enter numbers and it accepted my answers. (e.g. “geese a laying” instead of “6 geese a laying”)

I keep thinking of the Frank Sinatra version “and a most lovely lavendar tie.”

43 seconds here. I always forget the 12th day, probably because by the time you get to it, you’re so sick of the song that you just want it to be over.
