Oh, and a couple of other things: over here, Santa wears shorts and a singlet, and his sleigh is pulled by six white boomers (kangaroos). We like fruitcake (because we know how to make good ones), but plum pudding is a more traditional christmas lunch dessert, although it's also pretty common to see a pavlova or two. And to us, a pumpkin pie is a silly idea. We eat pumpkin with the rest of our veggies.

Christmas in July parties are reasonably common, but by no means universal, where we get together and have a hot dinner; it more closely resembles a traditional northern hemisphere christmas.

I want to live in Oz so bad!
You make it sound enticing.

Thanks for the images, TIO.
