Ok Guys, this is a spin off thread from the thread in Chat & Gossip about plans for Xmas.
It's come to my atttention that people aren't exactly climbing the walls to get home for Christmas. So who'd be up for some kinda of Orphan Xmas event, I'm not sure what yet but I'm throwing the idea out there.
Vote away and if you have any ideas then maybe we can arange something for the poor oprhans of Metro Melbourne.....

Bah Humbug..........

Bloody commercial Xmas!!!!

Spend the day at the beach instead....

Ugh. I can't think of anything worse than spending Christmas at the beach with 27000 kids and families. If that's the choice i'd rather spend it with my own family!

As for an orphans' shindig - might be up for it, but it's hard to plan this far in advance timmey. Who knows where i'll be in 2.5 months? My friends might organize a mini orphans Christmas just for us, or we might want to tack along to a bigger one. Ask again come December

Thanks for ya response Alison, yeah totally agree that plans can change, just thought would be good idea to see if anyone was up for it. Even if end up subsituting Turkey for Coopers Red hahahahaha

I said yes but I'm in Sydney!

I am in Sydney too - but hey, maybe i'll jump on a plane and come down to the Melbourne orphans' christmas?

That's the spirit

I may have to make a quick escape from the depths of Sutherland Shire if my dad mentions refugees again.

Christmas is a time for people, even if it is just one day! It's about enjoying yourself and feeling good, if that means doing it with a bunch of people you've never met rather than a family that you wish you'd never known then it has to be a good thing...right???
