Hey Everybody! Christmas is the time of year to enjoy & share with family & friends. Some people will spend this time alone & isolated too!

This is a safe place where people can post and say hello, chat or send wishes to others and have a 'Virtual Christmas/New Years'!

Whether you have plans for Christmas/New Years or having a quiet one you can kick back and just enjoy company of others. Its been a long year. Even if you have never posted on Beyond Blue before you are very welcome to come in and sit around our 'Virtual Christmas Tree' and chat 🙂

Just make sure you leave your snow gear/boots in the foyer. Please leave any reindeer or snow dogs outside if you can 😉 Happy Christmas xo

Santa (aka Paul) Ho Ho! 🙂

thats not hard to do I love songs that have a comic twist plus . Like thousands I was at the music bowl the day the seekers played there. You could not move that day most people didn't. We all just sang along. Later on in life my family actually met them off stage chatted with them. Nice people.

Kanga....I love that song about Santatown....classic seekers...I heard a caller on 3AW ask if that song was about 'Mornington VIC'.....whoops.....its Morningtown.....or in the Christmas spirit 'Santatown' Nice1 Kanga 🙂

Sara....I am working on a Santa avatar to give the bald headed endangered eagle a break 🙂

Here I go again,

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 Kanga...

I'm wondering what profession you're in..is it a (little) school music teacher? How do you remember those songs? Oh I suppose there's Dr Google...hmm cheating!

The only one I remember is;

Jingle Bells, Batman smells, Robin ran away

Ole (something? something?) caught his sister smokin' Craven A..

Ok...I didn't actually remember all of it. But you get my drift..see mine are quick and easy.
