... and the Countdown begins...

Wow! Just realised that in a few days, it will be December. Where did the year go?
The usual end of year panic has begun... the Christmas cards (where's the list?!), the shopping (gonna keep it real simple this year) and end of school exams plus buying new school books and uniforms for the next year. Gotta be done in the next few weeks as we will only have a week to spare before school starts next year.
yes ... and packing!
Our winters are so mild that I think we've no concept of what's going to hit us when we arrive at our holiday destination .. the US Nth East Coast.
Our downunder Christmases are warm to hot affairs. Traditional turkeys and Christmas hams with seafood galore topped with BBQs done by BBQ 'chefs' dressed in shorts and thongs and beers in hand. An orgy of food, drink and great weather to welcome the new year!

I'm not sure if we'll ever be prepared for this
