The adventures of Almigo

For the briefest moment over the Christmas holidays, life was calm. It was just me, a cold beer and a decent sized dam ready to be explored. And even though the family joined me soon after my discovery of the first yabbie, I still spent the good part of an afternoon relaxing, sipping and occasionally cheering as each yabbie joined the collection. Moon's out, so it's Yabbie time! Come and meet the dam family!

In today's June Flashback, we revisit my intense hatred of one particular piece of xmas music... To Mariah Carey's 'All I want for Christmas is you' played in shopping centers the country over during December, Australian's say no... This is Wayne Carey, no relation. 

After the weekend I've added another job to the 'list of careers' that I would be miserable at. Being a hardworking department store Santa. Buggered if I know how you gents do it but I tip my Chrstmas cap to you all (and you helper elves)..

When unwrapping the gifts under the Xmas tree this year, rejoice if you score any of the following: Socks Jocks Lottery tickets Sand Coal Nothing Huzah! Because it means that even though the gift giver has put as much thought into Christmas as their last trip to the toilet, it's still light years ahead of the duller than dull dishwater gift I saw yesterday for sale at a Supermarket near you...it is....wait for it....
