Since it is so close to xmas i thought it might be fun to share a aussie xmas carol with everyone . This is sung to the tune of jingle bells .

Aussie jingle bells

(V1 ) Dashing through the bush in a rusty holden ute,
kicking up the dust , esky in the boot ,
kelpie by my side, singing christmas songs,
it's summer time and i am in my singlet, shorts and thongs .

 Chorus
Oh jingle bells , jingle bells jingle all the way ,
christmas in Australia on a scorching summer day.
Jingle bells, Jingle bells, christmas time is beaut ,
oh what fun it is to ride in a rusty holden ute .

( v2 ) Engines getting hot , dodge the kangaroo,
swaggy climbs aboard, he is welcome too.
all the family's there , sitting by the pool,
christmas day the aussie way, by the barbecue.


repeat chorus


( V3 ) Come the afternoon, grandpa has a doze,
the kids and uncle bruce are swimming in their clothes,
the time has come round to go, we take a family snap
then pack the car and all shoot through
before washing up.

Repeat chorus


Let me know what you think  Grin Grin Grin
Hope everyone else will let us know what there favorite carol is

Hehe that's awesome. So what are the traditions at Christmas down under? I guess building a snowman is out! Do you have a tree and BBQ'd Turkey?

Cant have christmas without a tree!  But there are definately no snow-men.  Grin

My family usually try to have a traditional lunch (but not turkey), but if it gets really hot, we pre-cook our roast meat and eat it cold, or have a sea-food lunch...

But its never too hot for xmas pudding!  Tongue

Yes we have trees and the house is totally decorated. But this year instead of xmas bbq lunch we are having dinner ( chris my son 18 is working until 4 pm )

But there is everything you can think of both hot and cold from roast chicken to sauage straight of the bbq .

And talking about xmas
I wish everyone here on the yak shack and their families and friends
A VERY MERRY XMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR
