Man! this year has gone fast! I realise that "down under" here we are 24 odd hours ahead of you fellas up there in the Northern hemisphere, but all over the world, Christmas time is nearly here! As I shopped today, here in this small rural town, I might as well have been in downtown New York...it would seem that 99.9% of the worlds population has chosen to shop here also!..My God! I have never seen so many places so full of people at one time! Its gonna be a quiet but however peaceful time here at the Loudhouse... (well if the kids dont fight that is!), No Mother in law (thats a BLESSING) and just Mum, Dad and the kids! I can still remember having my drivers licence for the 1st time, and for that particular Christmas morning, driving out to LowerHutt to pick up my Grandmother, and bring her back home for Christmas dinner. It was a fine , clear, sunny morning, the air was fresh and clean and life itself had new meaning. I only can hope that tomorrow morning here, can be the same... To ALL my fellow Mylotters...May your Christmas be a fine one , May it be both happy and safe.. And may your 2009 bring with it all that you may desire may you be safe and be happy and prosper! Kindest Regards From All of us here at the "Loudhouse" Mandie,Grant,Jordan,Caitlin and Forde (Teamloud)

nothing on tv as to pira of normal for christmas eve, here in southern n.s.w. we're all going to putting up with the heat, or aleast that's what is forecast for us. i said to my boss this arvo, where has the week gone? it doesn't seem not long ago my work mate was leaving for a week at his mums place and he'll be back friday sometime. then we were doing the last minute shopping and food shopping today you couldn't get a park down the main street of deniliquin. didn't have the disable with us either, cause my mother inlaw was with us and shes got the sticker. so my son whose week has finally caught up to him, and he went to bed early minus putting out santa and reindeer treats. so if i'm lucky he'll sleep in in the morning, even thou we've all still got to get up and milk the cows. take care and safe driving this season where ever you are.
