Behold! Christmas In The Colonies!

hey everyone

well, this is quite class - i am not sure if my sister has imported this from the old world, or if they had their own version of it anyway, but i can confirm that, at least since this year, Christmas is celebrated in that far flung corner that is New Zealand!!

here is the photographic evidence to substantiate the above claim. well done Gillian and Grant on this self portrait picture, it looks much better than my efforts at the zoo with James!!





and may i say how impressed i am with Katie in this picture! as the above suggests, this whole Christmas business may well be treated with some doubt in New Zealand, and they may just decide not to do it again. that being the case, grab the presents and run!! poor Daniel with Mummy, though, is this one of your presents she has swiped?





and finally, Christmas dinner, with some more deft and skillful self-portrait-type pictures being taken. although you can't see what they are eating exactly, it is obviously lamb or something sheep related. all other animals are forbidden in New Zealand, apparently. what do they do for milk?




i believe that earlier posts have clarified that they do in fact eat conventionally in New Zealand. i think.

thanks for the pics guys, it looked like you had an ace day, just like we did!!

be excellent to each other, and take the time to send a communication at random to New Zealand - remember, they are isolated from the natural, normal world and thus rather like hearing from the outside.
