Merry Christmas Ispom,
a couple of nips of Schnapps should warm things up.
We are having a nice sunny day on the coast about 20ºc at the moment.
And no clouds :eyepop: I might have to have a stargaze tonight, if I can stay awake after Christmas dinner:lol:


cheers

Christmas cheer to all of you up over there.
My boys love this version of Jingle Bells.

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 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.

34 degrees C here today, pretty hot but not the hottest Christmas I have had.
The hottest was 43 degrees in 1973 in Brisbane. Wow, I nearly melted that day.
Thanks for the lyrics jjjnettie, I will sing them tomorrow at a Boxing day Gathering with my friends.
