I just love that Roo. :D Merry Christmas to you and your family mate.
 
Merry Christmas my friend, I hope y'all are having a good one!!!!!! :D :D :D
 
Here's a politically correct way to wish people 'Merry christmas"

Friends, I wanted to send some sort of holiday greeting to my friends,
but it is difficult in today's world to know exactly what to say
without offending someone. So I met with my lawyer yesterday, and on
advice I wish to say the following: Please accept with no obligation ,
implied or implicit , my best wishes for ...an environmentally
conscious, socially responsible, low stress, non addictive , gender
neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday practiced with the
most enjoyable traditions of religious persuasion or secular practices
of your choice with respect for the religious, secular persuasions and
or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or
secular traditions at all. I also wish you a fiscally successful,
personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the
onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2012, but not without
due respect for the calendar of choice of other cultures whose
contributions to society have helped make our country great ( not to
imply that Australia is necessarily greater than any other country )
and without regard to the race, creed, colour, age, physical ability,
religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee . By accepting this
greeting, you are accepting these terms: This greeting is subject to
clarification or withdrawal. It is freely transferable with no
alteration to the original greeting. It implies no promise by the
wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for her, him or others
and is void where prohibited by law, and is revocable at the sole
discretion of the wisher. The wish is warranted to perform as expected
within the usual application of good tidings for a period of one year
or until the issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the
wisher. Best Regards (without prejudice) Name withheld (Privacy Act).

Aussie Jingle Bells

Dashing through the bush
In a rusty Holden Ute
Kicking up the dust
Esky in the boot
Kelpie by my side
Singing Christmas songs
It’s summer time and I am in
My singlet, shorts & thongs

OH, JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS
JINGLE ALL THE WAY
CHRISTMAS IN AUSTRALIA
ON A SCORCHING SUMMER’S DAY
JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS
CHRISTMAS TIME IS BEAUT
OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE
IN A RUSTY HOLDEN UTE

Engine’s getting hot
Dodge the kangaroos
Swaggy climbs aboard
He is welcome too
All the family is there
Sitting by the pool
Christmas day, the Aussie way
By the barbecue!

OH, JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS
JINGLE ALL THE WAY
CHRISTMAS IN AUSTRALIA
ON A SCORCHING SUMMER’S DAY
JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS
CHRISTMAS TIME IS BEAUT
OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE
IN A RUSTY HOLDEN UTE

Come the afternoon
Grandpa has a doze
The kids and uncle Bruce
Are swimming in their clothes
The time comes round to go
We take a family snap
Then pack the car and all shoot through
Before the washing up

OH, JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS
JINGLE ALL THE WAY
CHRISTMAS IN AUSTRALIA
ON A SCORCHING SUMMER’S DAY
JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS
CHRISTMAS TIME IS BEAUT
OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE
IN A RUSTY HOLDEN UTE
