Starting to note some shop home windows are putting in Christmas Windows and I always start to feel excited. We usually celebrate Christmas Day by enjoying a Christmas lunch or dinner with our closest family and pals.
Growing up in our house I can always remember the searing warmth outdoors and scent of a roast wafting via the house by mid morning.
As far as Christmas traditions go, plenty of traditions are pretty much the identical in the Northern Hemisphere, besides they've snow!
Christmas is Coming put up pretty lights and wreaths on the entrance door and adorn the tree and watch carols by candlelight on Christmas Eve.
I always like to listen to “All I want for Christmas is you” from Love Actually and a newcomer as an Aussie playlist must have is “How to Make Gravy” by Paul Kelly.
This yr has been tinged with sadness around the world by occasions which are out of our control but impact many households each here and abroad. On the flipside we now have had some uplifting moments like the women’s football world cup that actually stopped our nation and made household names of our Matildas.
On behalf of all of the workers of the Dural Chamber and the Dooral Roundup, I wish to want you all a Merry Christmas and protected and peaceable New Year. Thank you for reading my tales each month!
