Christmas Fun with Kinki & McG

101 things you can do (but probably shouldn’t) with Christmas Bonbons


Some hats were not made to fit


OK, who put the hashish in the kebabs?


“Why dost thou whet thy knife so earnestly?”

Just spent a fab Christmas arvo with 4 fancy, and ever so slightly (cough) crazy, Canadians… just like the old Senkawa Orphans Xmas Days in Tokyo, only outdoors in the (relative heat of our) BBQ Pergola.

Much as I love my folks, spending the day with friends is infinitely more relaxing and raucous. I haven’t laughed so much for months (and how does MiniMc thank me for my jolly mood? Several bouts of hiccups and a fair boot in the kidneys, thanks for asking…)

I even misbehaved with a small bottle of Asti Riccadonna (only 7% alcohol!). Very decadent, me. One thing I’m grateful for is that I wasn’t allowed to write myself off like previous Christmases. Much as getting sloshed over Christmas Pud is ever so fun at the time, Aussie Christmases (ahem, for me anyway) invariably end up in a downward spiral of dehydration, nausea and slurred foolishness, leading to killer hangover later that evening (and relieving oneself of Christmas Pud over Porcelain Christmas Bowl).

Mais non!!! I nursed my little bottle quite happily and am now blogging whilst Husband is nursing sore head on the couch after a 7 beer (+ renegade glass of red wine which he has since suggested was not such a great idea…) Bender.

Merry Christmas Oh Faithful Readers and Site Hoppers! May your Porcelain Christmas Bus be unridden this Christmas and New Years (unless of course, that’s your “thang”...)

  3. A buddy i worked with in Whistler (Ben from Adelaide) gave me you and your hubby’s website addresses back in 2003. Can’t remember what his connection to you guys was but… I just rediscovered your website and have to say, it’s still a great read and a great laugh. The things that make us all so different, and so similar.
    Congratulations, good luck, Merry Christmas and I look forward to a happy new year of more 35 degree blogging.
