On Sunday last Oisin and I went to Melbourne for a couple of days. We contacted Niamh and Joe and the vets. As they were having a ‘Christmas’ dinner, they invited us along. It was great. Normally in Australia they have a celebration on July 25th (the middle of Winter) called ‘Christmas in July’. As they had visitors from Ireland and July did not suit, they had it close to June 25th. It was a real Christmas dinner and we all wore the party hats and sang along with the Christmas songs. After dinner we all watched ‘Home Alone’ and eat Roses and Quality Street. Some of us even fell asleep on the couch! After that we all played ‘Pictionary’. It was great craic.
At 7.30 Oisin and I went to ‘The Quiet Man’ pub to meet Karin and Rick our Canadian friends. We had a bit of grub and then watched ‘The Craic Hooers’ performing. I finally got a photo with them for the blog, see below.
