    I thought that they said, "oh! oh! oh!' down there.

    Come on folks, we're talking about people who walk upside down!

    They told Santa to go to rehab and he said "Ho, ho, ho."

    I would expect Australians to say Merry Christman, like their British ancestors.

    I rarely hear anyone say Merry Christmas over here, mostly Happy.

    Christmas is in the summer Down Under. But according to my sister in WA, all the shops still decorate with traditional wintery English scenes. Go figure.

    Several years ago Granny answered the door saying "Ho Ho Ho" and I said "You're 'Queen of the Ho-ers'"...not such a great Christmas.

    Very true. I say Santa Claus to fit in over here, but to me, the man in the red suit is Father Christmas.
