Merry Christmas everyone!

Sigh - thats it - the work years stuffed, the lawns are mowed, the windows are cleaned and tomorrows dinner is pretty well made..... The presents are wrapped, the tree can be seen from outer space, is levitating due to an excessive amount of gifts underneath including a killer one for Vickster and there is just one bicycle to be assembled this evening (dammit). The first bottle of bubbly just went 'pop'....... and I'm settling into the glow.

The 2 grandsons that live with us are pretty well worn out from a very sunny day in paradise and the tuis are flippin about the garden. Of course its not all good as the rescue chopper just blew overhead but today it aint us so thats ok ish. Lets hope its a false alarm.

Tomorrow we have 3 daughters, 2 partners, 3 grandsons, several dogs, 1 cat and a couple who have just moved here and have no family about the place arriving for lunch - as always it will be bloody perfect....

I freely admit I'm blessed - above all I'm blessed to be content with what I have and a woman who loves me (god knows why) so I'm as happy as a clam!

My one hope is that you all find some kind of fun joy tomorrow because not matter what your religious bent it IS a special day!

Peace to all...

Well, I'm sitting here in my Y-fronts and singlet after a shower, was all sweaty due to working on mechanical stuff in 30+ degrees here today, now have a JD & Coke in my hand and rrelaaxiing in preparation for Christmas.

So Merry Kimbo to everybody in KB world - even the drongo Kbers, have a safe and fun Christmas and New Year and keep riding!

As Paul sez - ANOTHER year down the gurgler, they go by faster as the years go by....

There are some times I wish I could un-read what I have read on KB and remove the mental picture. Have a Merry Christmas

Thanks for starting the thread Paul. Merry Christmas to you and Vicky and all your extended family and to all KBers no matter where you are. Have fun and enjoy the day tomorrow and hope that 2012 will be a good one for you all.

Enjoy the friends and family all, and may next year be better than the last.

Being down in Christchurch for Xmas means a drink or three just to settle the nerves...
Merry Xmas to the good guys,a hunk of coal to the rest of you...
