THE PROCECUTION OF THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL KNOWN AS SANTA CLAUS Ladies and gentlemen of the court of Australia, Today, we are here to put forward a formal proposal for the capture, prosecution and incarceration of Mr. Kris Kringle, better known worldwide by his criminal handle “Santa Claus”. This individual has been blatantly breaking countless laws both here in our sovereign nation and internationally for decades, possibly even centuries. Although, this cannot be confirmed. For too many years this criminal has been blatantly entering Australia illegally without a valid visa or via a designated port of entry and deliberately bypassing all of Australia’s border protection security. In addition, it has been reported that he also brings numerous undocumented reindeer into our country regularly without adhering to our countries strict quarantine regulations. These untested animals could risk exposing our vulnerable native animals to any number of dangerous foreign parasites and diseases which potentially could be devastating to our indigenous populations. As Mr. Johnny Depp has recently discovered, such a risk to our native species cannot and will not be tolerated here in Australia regardless of an individual’s “fame” or “celebrity” status. In addition, over the years Mr. Kringle has accumulated several million counts of smuggling, non-declaration of goods, import tax avoidance and the illegal importation of large amounts of untested goods without the required permits. These imported items have not undergone any kind of quality control or safety tests that are required by law to be performed by the Department of Immigration and Border Protection. Regulations which exist for the sole purpose of protecting our citizens from potential harm. It should also be noted that it must be assumed that since Mr. Kringle apparently makes all his items at his own personal factory in an unknown location, that many of the items that he distributes obviously must be counterfeit knockoffs of famous brand names not endorsed by the legitimate companies that manufacture them. We have pursued lines of enquiry to a number of these companies, but are still awaiting any official reply. However, the prosecution reserves the right to pursue this at a later date as new evidence comes to light.

Greetings All! Christmas is almost upon us again! So I thought I would start this thread to talk about everything festive! My favourite things about Christmas: Making cards Putting up decorations Wrapping presents The smell of pine needles Christmas crackers (why are silly plastic toys so awesome when they come out of a cracker?) I would love to hear what your favourite things about Christmas are. And does anyone have a specific decoration that is a bit of a family tradition? It could be something that has been passed down through generations or just something that's makes everyone smile (or groan!) when it is gotten out of the box! We have a singing Santa which we use to wake each other up in the morning whether it is Christmas Day yet or not! I look forward to hearing your Christmas stories! All the Best, Rose

Hey everyone! Barbecues are very popular in Australia, so I thought we could have one here, in the BB Social Zone! Rules: No offensive language - be nice This place is for chatting, similar to the BB Café. No stories about depression and stuff like that except if you're joking about it. Everyone is welcome to have a snag whenever they want. Making heaps on snags for the BBQ's grand opening! Dan

I started off gazing into the night air, then I found myself in this hypnotic stare, whilst I was there I will tell you what I saw, I saw broken girl, who wanted so much more. As the night grew on and my thoughts began to race, It was myself, I thought I could not face. I quiver with fear every single day, if only I could find, another easy way. I try so hard to fight these long dark lonely days, but they seem to have caught me, in eternal haze. I'm no stranger to the wrath of this place, the demons around me and what I have to face. There's something after me and it's called "I am here" it's a dark side of the atmosphere. It circles around me and I bear not to look, it has me by a thread, it has me by it's hook. The Shadows that follow me, in my dark place, have a ugly side, have a ugly face, When I come up to breathe for some fresh air, "I am here" decides to share. It has no remorse or feeling of guilt, it takes you as you are and watches you wilt. Screaming out for help into the Abyss of life, "I am here"will take you as his wife. As I stare out further into the night air, I notice myself starting to care. I care about my future and the ones I love the most, not about "I am here" my most unlikely host. I take in my thoughts for which I'd like to share, I think about myself and what I think is fair. I want a life of peace, of clear thoughts and happy days, I do not want to be stuck, in this eternal Haze. I finally feel "I am here" is fading away, and I'm here, to face another day. The morning is here and I've survived another night, I have proven to myself I can truly fight. I celebrate my life and I shed a tear, now there is new meaning behind, I am here.

Anyone else feel like they don’t know what they’re doing with their life? Feels like all my friends have plans and things to look forward to with their careers and relationships and I’m stuck in a low paying job not using my qualifications. I recently moved away from my friends and family to be with my partner which was ok at first but it’s getting harder by the day as i don’t have any friends around me and am constantly staying home alone. It’s making me smoother her so much because she’s the only person I get attention from but it’s starting to take a toll and I feel her getting more distant from me. I feel worse and worse by the day and she doesn’t really understand she just tells me to go see someone about it which isn’t helpful. Can anyone relate or is it just me?
