Christmas is BIG down here, and still fairly traditional, which is nice

Christmas Day on Bondi Beach is not though. In recent years thousands of backpackers invade it and treat it like a pagan drunken festival. Hundreds get arrested every year. And spoil it for everyone else.

The Santas in this video are not backpackers by the way.

Acting like a drunk Pagan on a beach?
Oh, the horror!!!!!!!
I thought that was what beaches were for?

Meanwhile, I posted my Christmas gift to (dinosaur) Flight Simmers yesterday.

If you still have Flight Sim 2004 (FS9) installed and you enjoy throwing the old Dean Reimer/Aerialfoundry F/A-18 around, I painted a bunch of pilot and helmet textures for the default aircraft plus a bunch of the repainted squadrons.
Head over to flightsim.com and download us_navy_f-18_pilots.zip .

If you've been good, Santa Gonky may show up a couple of times.

Check your sources, Methuselah. Now-a-days ETs own the forward half of the boat.

How about we skip the microwaves and the hoo hah?
One coffee mug filled with Rum.
One shot glass of Nog, as a chaser.

It will all mix once you drink it.
Then, settle back and watch the furry animals play on the lawn.

recently had a lot this eggnog, an american friend of mine used to produce this during Christmas in Goettingen, hectoliter-wise

This is for ~ 1 litre

6 eggs
60 gramm sugar (Americans use 200, don't! )
500 ml cream
250 ml milk
125 ml brown rum
100 ml whisky
100 ml Cognac
1 vanilla pod/bean
ground nutmeg

Then add what Aktungbby said, i'll sure try
