Yes, Seasons Greetings, to all, for yesterday and the New Year thingie shortly.

As it happened I was at a gathering for a SEA Diaspora of folk in NZ yesterday, and feasted on Cambodian, Lao, Thai, Burmese and Yunnan food. ( I took a Kiwi style Turkey and a Ham )

They weren't celebrating the Xmas festival, but they know and appreciate the Public Holiday and an opportunity to party with family and friends, so a good time was had by all.

Only about 8 families and so and put together by a little saint of a Cambodian lady, who came here as a result of the troubles in the '70s, I hesitate to ask for details, as it's likely she lost family.

Merry Xmas etc etc, 

 

Lunch is what we do, I was only white person at a table of 11 of the family, 

 

Thai, Laos, Portugal, Ghana and Mozambique all present at the table. 

 

Great food, far fewer than in yesteryears when we threw a chistmas lunch in bangkok, but still good fun playing "Wink" game after the meal

Bah Humbug! Of course, not wanting to offend anyone, I will graciously accept gifts…Happy Holidays everyone…

Just finished my shopping and to be honest pretty much stress free. Either people aren't spending or planning better this year.

Hope the rainbow leggings Serge sent you fit. I suggested a size larger but he claims to know your legs better than anyone.

Seasons Greetings to all 🎅

I have the legs for a  “tighter fit…” out tomorrow to see lights and what not, then back for the Jewish Christmas tradition of Chinese food and movies…
