Subject: Stardoe picks up the plate of Vancouver crab
In reply to: kenamom, wearing her best red suit with white fur trim 's message, "did you say prawns and grog?" on 16:47:26 12/23/05 Fri

and crunches on a nipper. "Hmm not bad for a foreign crustacean." she murmers as bits of shell fly over the dusty coir matting on the floor. Kenamom lounges on the chesterfield. "Yes,nice prawns, Stardoe. " Stardoe gets up and runs the vacuum cleaner over the basement. Kenamon disappears out the door. Stardoe is too busy with the belated spring cleaning to heed her absence. After about an hour Kenamom returns with a 6 ft christmas tree she chopped down from her private plantation. She puts it in the corner while Stardoe grabs and bucket of sand and water to keep it alive in. Kenamom looks at her in a wierd way. "Just an Aussie thing K, " she says.

They both set about decorting the tree with some old ornaments and tinsel that Stardoe had cached in her basement cupboard. Kenamom starts to hum Dreaming of a White Christmas. While Stardoe sings her old Kindergarten Christmas song .....

The north wind is tossing the leaves,
The red dust is over the ground
The sparrows are under the eaves
And the grass in the paddock is brown
As we lift up our voices and sing
To the Christ child our heavenly King.

then.....another one.....

Out on the plains the brolgas are dancing [darncing]
Lifting their feet like war horses prancing [prarncing]
Up to the sun the woodlark goes winging
Faint in the dawn light echoes are singing
Horanah, horanah, horanah for Christmas Day.

Only 5 yrs old and yet to this day Stardoe still remembers that singing teacher making the whole class sing like toffs....darncing and prarncing. ha ha ha ha ha.

Merry Christmas Kenamom
