Christmas Calculations
Some of you may have already enjoyed Heath Mc Kenzie’s version of the Twelve days of Christmas.
“On the twelfth day of Christmas my true love sent to me…
twelve devils fighting, eleven emus kicking, ten wombats sleeping, nine crocs a weeping, eight flies a feasting, seven possums playing, six sharks a swimming, five kang- a - rooooos,
four cuddling koalas, three little penguins, two pink galahs
and a kookaburra in a gum tree”.
But, I’m wondering,
How many lively or lounging legs, were languishing and leaping in the landscape that Christmas Day?
Have a wonderful celebration together, a relaxing and peaceful one!
And a well-earned holiday, see you all next February.
Cheers,
