Busy booking Zoom calls here.
Dressing up as Rudolph for the kids in the family.....
Well dressing up like that for the missus would be concerning
Shit.

And to all you Polish chicks, Wesolych Swiat
My Polish is quite rusty as I left when I was a just a young lass, and given who it is coming from I thought that is just as likely to be "get fucked" as "Merry Christmas".
So Wesolych Swiat to you all, (and you can take that however you like).

Hopefully the Palestinian and Jordanian don't both just bring hummus and bread
Hopefully the Palestinian and Jordanian aren't both thinking "hope the Kiwi doesn't do Pavlova - it's just meringue and whipped cream FFS. Yeah and isn't it dinki di Aussie anyway?"
Yep! You need to do a rolled shoulder of Christmas lamb, @Nepia!!
We're already doing a roast chicken as the "main" - plus I live in inner city Sydney, like I can afford lamb after paying my accomodation costs.
I've got 2.5kgs of rolled pork loin going cheap...comes infused with the Northern Beaches Rona
Hahaha, I'll head over grab it, get tested, go into iso and sit at home for Xmas playing PS4 but well stuffed with pork.
Just checked it on the ferry for you bro, and I threw in one of these that I spotted at my local Coles today - you're set!
Sorted.
So made my pav last night - spectacular failure. I last made one when I was 13. I knew I shouldn't have followed in online recipe that called it The Great Aussie Pav.
I'm going to give it another shot tonight, but I'm going to grab a Harris Farm/Coles one as a just in case back up.
Should have said I'd bring boil up.
No

My present to you all. I can finally sport a dready manbun. Take that Europe.
... and then the moment they had all feared had arrived. They watched helpless as the creature threw back the curtain and revealed itself as the psychopath it had always been at its heart.

Don't make me throw that ginger nonsense around again.

Merry Christmas my shadey internet friends. I hope your day is filled with too much. Stay safe, have fun.

Merry Xmas mudder pukkas. Hope you got what you wanted.
Got the new Google Chromecast with Google TV - rad. Now I can sign in on the device to all the streaming shit I want and no fucking around.
Also got a magnetic vent mount kit for the phone. Life becomes simpler in small increments - I'm easy to please.
Cooler weather here in Sydney - first Xmas in ages where the temp has been < 30C. So 2020.

Merry Christmas!

I had a good Christmas, lunch with the wife's family, tea with mine - locations not ideal, being Ashburton and Woodend respectively, so a bit of driving involved (we live in Christchurch).
An early controversy (a few weeks ago) was that my wife decided she didn't want to go to my family's for tea (too far after driving to Ashburton so she'd be too tired even though I was driving), and also tried to tell me I wasn't going. I refused to buckle, so by Christmas Day, she'd accepted that I was going (alone), so I figured that was fine (I'm not one for forcing this kind of thing, far too unproductive in my experience).
Then on the day, I got an epic present of my wife's family giving her an earful for not going to said Christmas tea, and then a second earful when I innocently let slip that she originally tried to tell me I wasn't going either. I managed to keep a straight face, but the internal grin was ear to ear...
