You, young lady, are sailing very close 'slapping island' with such provocative statements.

We are not daft, we can translate, and we know what 25 Decembo is.

Any more before the first frost of the year and you will be sent to the norty step till the 23rd.

Oh we've had loads of frosts here lately

Oooohhhh.... the first "December" post. I was thinking the other day that I needed to check with Nadine what our plans are going to be this year

Same as Antonia, we (being German) have our special dinner the evening before you UK folk have your special day (now how is that for avoiding mention of dates / occasions). Jan, I'd be curious what Austrian tradition is if there is one.

Now sure yet Ria, she's from Vienna, so wants to do a traditional Viennese evening and food.

We're more than half way through the year so....plans need to be made!

I walked past Card Factory the other day and realised that they usually have a few Christmas things on sale once the kids break up for the Summer, so any time now :Hi:

Arghhhh!

Miss, miss!

Jo used the word, Weka is using frost excuses from upside down land and Ria is trying to be clever by mentioning it without actually mentioning it!
