Merry (late) Christmas!

I'm ill so I can't really be bothered making a post :( Father Christmas brought me a cold this year. I would have preferred reindeer poo.

Christmas was fun! But also a bit weird. So many people were out on the streets, the trams were packed, and the beach was absolutely heaving! A lot of people were wearing santa hats at the beach, and one group had even brought a Christmas tree with them. Everyone had beer with them.

I worked until 4pm so we just went to the beach for half an hour to take some pictures and experience an Australian Christmas, then came home and made a traditional British Christmas dinner (but with kangaroo instead of turkey :/)

Mathias got me a knife for Christmas! How sweet...

He seemed quite pleased with his book

and cinema tickets to see The Hobbit on opening night. Unfortunately that meant I had to go and see it with him. It wasn't quite as shit as the other Lord of the Rings film that I've seen (and no, there is no difference).

I'm working a lot at the moment and looking forward to having money for once. It was quiet today so I finished early and called Mathias to come down to the zoo, so we spent a couple of hours looking around, which was nice as I don't usually get time to see the animals.

Ok I'm rambling now. Time for paracetamol and sleep.
