Merry Christmas

Thanks very much all !!!!

I always wondered how folks down under fared around Christmas considering the weather difference.

Merry Christmas, Andy!
..... yes the concept of a "White Christmas" is VERY foreign to us here !!! T Shirts, shorts, thongs (the foot kind) and sunburn are the norm !!! Growing up we HAD to do the big hot meal (roasts etc) for Christmas lunch but finally everyone realised that cold cuts and salad made much more sense...!!! For us this year it will be cold sliced ham, some other meats, oysters and prawns... :)

...working all the up to, and in between Xmas and New Year's Day... Some of us have got to :D
... I am back on deck 30 Dec but am on call right over the break... pound of flesh and all that ;)
 
And when I went to take the pics of my pups for Christmas this year we had forgotten to stock up on "treats" to keep them interested... this resulted in an "industrial action" and protest until such time the treats were provided...till that time this was the only pic allowed....

Love that hat, I share the sentiment..... That dog of yours? We'd get along just fine, he and I.

Cheers mate! Have a great one!
 
Andy, I seem to recall you mentioning somewhere else what breed they are, but I have forgotten. Could you let us know? They are good looking pups for sure.
 
They are English Setters mate. Full brother and sister but from different litters.

Soooo..... it is that time of year again... here it is heating up, the air con is raging, we are trying to keep the flies away from the BBQ and stopping the beer ice from melting...that must mean Christmas is approaching !!!!! ....

SoHem problems... :rolleyes:

Merry Christmas, Montana style, where the tinsel goes on all the trees! :p

Wow Tim!!!!!

That's usually what Xmas looks like here.... However, it looks like we are having a green Xmas. It's been raining for a while. Suppose to be 15c for Xmas. That's 59F ..... Haven't seen that warm of a December in a long time....
 
Merry Christmas to everyone !!!!!!!

Good looking dogs those pics are great :D
 
A decent view this morning. :)

Thanks all... just finished at the local shops (it is the 24th here already) and as usual for the last 10 years I was there when they opened the doors and out before it got too insane... I wore my " Caution - Grumpy Old Man" T Shirt but still people didn't get the message .... ;) :D

Home now and settled in, all being well I wont leave the house again till sometime after the 27th !!!!!!

Tim.... what is all that freaking white stuff ??? Drop a box of flour or something.... ;) I need to go fire up the air conditioning now....


BTW - I love Montana, drove the length of it and did some wandering around there some years ago, fond memories of Mt Helena and snow..!!!
 
God jul!

Strangely enough, we have very little snow this Christmas..
.. some blame global warming.. others are suspicious of the imported nuclear meltdown treated INFI.. personally, I'm just glad that there's less shoveling on my to do list.
Merry Christmas to you all!
 
Merry Christmas ALL!!!

Here's a quick picture I took looking out my office window the other day...


I hope You and Yours have a Safe and Fun Holiday Season and Wonderful New Year!
