father christmas (christine marsland) found where we were staying in geelong and sent some presents to open on christmas day.
thanks mrs christmas! :) we were really glad that we had some presents to open.
we spent most of christmas day at marra's dad, tony's house with george, george, phil, james (who had arrived that morning), marra, his dad and some of his family.
we were hoping for a nice hot day so we could sit outside in our shorts having a bbq and play some garden cricket.... but it rained and was cold. we had the bbq set up in the garage and played some wet garden cricket in jumpers and jeans.
the food was good, no turkey or crackers, though there was roast potatoes and christmas pudding with brandy sauce (which amy couldn't get enough of). nonna (marra's italian grandma) made lasagne and marra was in charge of the bbq.
greg, george, george and phil spent most of the day trying to polish off the crates we bought while playing on tony's pinball machines. amy had a few goes too. between us we must have watched about 3 series of friends and the simpsons too!
throughout the day we had various phone calls from home. percy called at 2am (english time) on his was back from the navi and roland called and said amy had an aussie accent. dave, amy's mum and dad, grandad ces, jes and jack all wished us a happy christmas too. thanks for the calls everyone.
have a fun week love us x x x

WAHEY Merry Christmas it was good to talk to you and thanks for the presents, I spent all day eating and reading. no pinball though but you can't have everything.
Merry Christmas, shame it was wet over there, we spent Christmas day eating a picnic on the banks of the canal.
Blistering heat.
