As this is British Expats, should we not use the term Father Christmas? Just a thought....

That is a great Christmas song. Just pipped by Slade which, for me, epitomises childhood Christmases.

Ok so i've revised the Poem just for Eva.....



From Dubai to Heathrow, we may be greeted by snow, the roads will be gritted and traffic so slow.

Radio 1's the familiar sound, as we drive home, where family and pets can be found.

Piping hot stew and warm crusty bread, no more AC the log fire instead.

Slippers on, the cat's on your lap, the dog's by your feet and he's taking a nap.

Jack Frost is outside as we look out the window, the Christmas Tree's glistening, we're back home for Chrimbo.

Tucked up in our beds, we hear noise on the roof, the noise we are hearing are reindeer hoofs.

It means he is here, santa himself, drinking the sherry you left on the shelf.

The big day arrives and we open our pressies, we tuck in to dinner then off for some bevvies.

Back for the Queens speech and a nap on the sofa, tomorrow's Boxing Day and Christmas will be over.

New years has arrived, the countdown is here, Big Ben strikes 12 and we let off a cheer.

And now it's all over, it's time to return, to the land of sand dunes and some serious sun burn.

Ok let's see......

I look in your eyes, they're like Twinkling Stars among all the planets like Venus and Mars.

You look back at me in a flirtatious way, anxious and waiting to hear what I say.

I move in closer and whisper in your ear, the words make you shiver with passion not fear.

You close your eyes as I start to kiss you, I knew it was something that you wanted too.

The moment is perfect and we are at one, I turn on some music, your favourite love song.

This could get to steamy, i'll leave right there, this poems for you to show that I care.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Ok so it was a bit soppy, but I think charming. I hope you liked it.
