    If you ask her how many days to Christmas, then Santa will give you a update and anything else.
    I know it's a bit childish but I like it.

      Just tried it and it cheered me up. Santa asked if I had a stocking, he seemed a bit confused when I said No, and he said "try again tomorrow" :)

        I like my Alexa, but she won't play any radio stations outside the UK, or is it just me?

                After we've asked her to do something we usually say thank you then she says anytime or your welcome, now that isn't available, she says go to the app to find out more things.

                  I am still just about the smartest thing in my house, but don't tell the computer or the phone that I said that.
