If we can peel the kids off the trampoline santa is bringing them, then we'll be going to friends for a seafood lunch and turkey dinner later (when it's a bit cooler!!!). There'll be 13 of us - 6 adults and 7 kids, so should be lotsa fun!!!
Merry xmas.

Not going to miss the UK at all. Even when we were living there we used to always try and book a holiday abroad in a hot country! So now our dreams are realised. Its currently 7pm, the lightning show is beginning over Brisbane, and its hot hot hot! Sitting on the verandah with a glass of wine, on my PC, listening to the noisy cicades, and watching the flying foxes, waiting for the downpour.......ah bliss......roll on Xmas!

Re: What are you all doing christmas day?
You lucky buggers!!!!
I'm working 7-1 so, will have to get the kids up to open their pressies before I leave for work. Will be putting the Turkey in before I go and doing the dinner when I get home.
Will probably have a few drinks on the afternoon but not too many as I am working boxing Day as well
Will be thinking of you all with your sun, wine and seafood
