Holiday

That is funny Rick!!!

FOR OUR AUSSIE FRIENDS!

Jingle "Aussie" 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 and thongs

Oh! Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,
Christmas in Australia
on a scorching summers day, Hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut!,
Oh what fun it is to ride in a rusty Holden Ute.

Engine's getting hot,
We dodge the kangaroos,
The swaggie climbs aboard,
He is welcome too.
All the family's 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 summers day, Hey!
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 the family snap,
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 summers day, Hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut!,
Oh what fun it is to ride in a rusty Holden Ute.

Nice poem Mrs. M, and nice Aussie variation of Jingle Bells. That "Rusty Holden Ute" version is actually very popular over here. You always get someone singing it while the rest are singing the 'traditional' version.

     

Did you know that the first Christmas card was in England?

I've got me old kelpie, Little Bit, by me side. Last of the line of them I used to have in Hasaii.


"Shop" and My Snipes

Evening, shop! That's a dog??

Just to clarify

Aussie pair of thongs (a classy set at that)


I just didnt want you guys thinking we were in our holdens in a US *Thong*

Lol, Lexie! Hey, have you noticed that I have been to the site you told me to visit?

I like that, Rick!

ASK RICK, THE ARCHIVE MAN!

Rick searching the archives.

LMAO!!!

A compromise between toilets and the holidays:

I am in tears!

In case puppy needs a valentine:

Well, now Rick, I didn't know you were a poker player. And what do you like to play and for how much? I've played a little in my life.

Anything that has a wild Joker in it.

I can play that, but I prefer 5 card stud.

Yes, well, Rick, I'm not playing against her!

Looks like they are playing strip poker, and everyone has lost except for their collars.

Well, I don't know about that, Rick. If you'll notice, I don't have too bad of a hand...but then, maybe I am winning!

LMAO!! That is really, really cute...I am going to send it to my sister. She is a retired Airforce colonel. She'll love it!

This guy REALLY lost at poker!

Oh, gads, Puppy!!!!! I guess!!!

This is strickly for the poker game, of course!

This is one heck of a great thread. 300+ replies, and Mrs. M was the OP.

LMAO!! Poor little kid!

On a more serious note...
