Mmmmm, thought it was unusual, is Christmas day on the 25th of December again this year ?.

[anneasquith]

i know.

[B00]

Apparently so Tony! Shocking innit?

[lady-janine]

tony - this is getting very boring. seems to have been stuck on that date for ages now.

[AB Editor]

Getting this in early then B00? Before how we hear that the government should really do something about all that snow, and isn't that what I pay my taxes for I bet immigrants/single-mothers/the EU have an endless summer while we, the hardworking families of the nation, have to put up with this miserable weather - they wouldn't get away with this in Germany and in [insert supposedly enlightened Scandinavian nation here] they deal with it by ..... etc etc etc

[tonyav]

I know, you'd think that they would make it a bit more interesting and change the date sometimes like they do with Easter.

[tonyav]

Righto Ed.
Tony searches for his snow chains.

[B00]

Well to be fair tony, if they did that how on earth will people then be able to say "Christmas already That came round quick, totally caught me by surprise" then?

[AB Editor]

It would be quite good if they did - although, how would we get through December without a few thousand watts of christmas lights lighting up our grim faces as we dive into the shopping scrums of the festive highstreet?

[B00]

how about they move Christmas to say July? When it's warmer?

[tonyav]

Well the shops could get around that by having Christmas stuff on the shelves all year round. seems like they do anyway lol.

lol, Ed, we should all get outselves put in prison, it's a holiday camp there and they all get electric blankets and turkey every day.

I was expecting winter here, yesterday they said it was going to be down to 3 degrees all week. Now they say it's going to be 9 degrees. What happened to my winter? Probably stolen by some of those hardy types up north

Great idea that B00, turkey on the beach. Well the Aussies do don't they.

[B00]

Ooooo can't open that link jno, say "permission denied"...issit summet rude?

[jno]

ooh no way, B00, it was a photo of about a million people on Bondi Beach on December 25th. I expect the government has banned it because it gave people improper thoughts, like emigrating.
