Well we started Xmas day off with a bang!
The dogs woke us at 6am and Tim wanted to go back to sleep so we kept him awake!
We opened our Xmas stockings, had fun and lots of laughs then spoke to mum and dad, Luke and Jim and Shirley were there too! We then phoned Shirley and spoke to her too and told them all that we would talk later when it was Xmas in the UK!
Tim cooked brekkie and the dogs got fed between phone calls and emails. Then we opened pressies from mum and dad in the UK, chocolate, more chocolate and a few other nice bits for reading and car keys!
We spoke to Bob and Tracey and heard Kieron gurgling in the back ground he sounded so contented as did Tracey and Bob after all the hassle they had having a ickkle one of there own! Bless! it was nice to hear such happy voices :)
We then heard from Dave a friend Tim had met through IT stuff who invited us to the beach for an Xmas day swim. Then John Turned up as he had left his mobile in the car last night after our wild night out on the town!
We had gone to the boat club and had a really nice evening with a band playing and loads of people dancing like in the old days when i went out as a child with mum and dad! Tim was quite scared at all these old people dancing their shoes off! It was really nice evening even though we had organised to eat out! i am not sure what had happened in the translation but John and Dulcie had eaten! hay ho so we just had some sandwiches and wedges! It was nice evening but we were all yawning by 10.30pm!
I drove so i was on the ginger beer and Tim was on the Guinness it was nice as we heard more stories from John and Dulcie about there time in Saudi Arabia! it was very exciting!
Got home safely without being stopped by the police which are more prominent than the police in the UK.
Tim watched the blues brothers or back to the future or summat and i fell asleep!
25th December
Our first ever Ozzy Xmas!
After all those calls and present unwrapping we were in the pool for a swim, saved a bearded dragon from being eaten by the dogs!
We had text messages from Emma, Casey, Tim's cousin in Sydney and Dom Tim's mate from Hockey!
We got ourselves ready to go and meet Dave and Lane at the beach, and went down for a paddle and to say hello as we could not go for a swim as we did not have time!
It was beautiful the beach was idyllic and the surf was up and looking good!Lane turned up we wished them merry Xmas and headed off to our Xmas lunch at Robyn and Colin's!
Got home fed the monsters locked them in the garden to play! and off we went to Urraween for Xmas lunch!
Got there and Robyn's sister Bev and her husband Steve were there with Robyn's sons Daniel and and Tony and us!
It was so nice to have an ozzy Xmas and have the pee taken out of us Poms! I ate more than i wanted as Colin said it was a day bout excess! so i stuffed down oysters, champagne (well asti) king prawns, sand crabs salad and loads more so much so i was slipping it on to Daniels plate while he was not looking!
It was fantastic for me, Tim took his own lamb chops and Colin cooked them to perfection so Tim was happy too!
They had two dogs a rottie Rebble and a chwowa called something cute that i cant remember!
We drank loads as it was my turn to drink today!
I had some home made brandy that was quite nice ! and we staggered off home about 5 pm !
Got back and we were watering the garden when Carl, Nereda and Jaden turned up!
So more drinking, snacks and giving of pressies!
Tim got stressed out with Jaden running around with the dogs and doing things he should not have, but he realises he needs to lock up the good stuff and just let him run himself out! It sounds like he is adopted so it made us realise that they are more lenient with him then they should be.
He is a really nice boy just so full of beans!
Nick phoned while we had them around so we called him back! I am trying desperately to get him out here as there are no good restaurants or cafes here, and i miss him like mad!
So now writing the blog as you lot are about to start your Xmas day!
Love to you all and may you all be blessed with all that you wish for this Xmas as i have been more than surprised! i thought i would struggle and find it hard without our families here to see, but the Internet makes the world so small.
It has been a great day and i am really looking forward to talking to mum and dad, Luke, Jim and Shirley and Shirley, Tim's mum then Margaret and bed!
We will have spoken to more people now than ever so it is really nice.
Have had emails from loads of friends and Xmas cards from loads of mates in the UK
Bless you all and may every wish come true
big hugs
Y&T
