In the afternoon of last Christmas, the relatives arrived for a barbeque, some drinks and a few sausages. After a headache pill and a rest, we opened the presents, ate all the chocolates, biscuits and sweets. Then we drank a few tinned beers and Mum got angry after Dad and Steve had an argument and bit of a physical fight.

Not bad - or alternatively: Last Christmas the family turned up, as always in the afternoon when all the work had been done, to scrounge some food. They expected the full works - home made cranberry sauce, brussel sprouts, stuffing with ten tons of turkey and a ham followed by plum pudding, christmas cake and chocolate cake for the kids who don't like plum pudding - aargh!. After dinner I had to take an aspirin and have a lie down, then finally the kids wore us down and we let them have their pressies as we scoffed all the roses, shortbread and midget gems. After a couple or ten beers I got really p**d off when Dad and Steve had a row and came to blows. Oh, I miss those family Christmases with the rain pouring and getting jumpers, boots and thermal undies for presents Title: Re: 2009 Australian Citizenship test Post by: sylph on Sunday 11 January 2009, 12:10:28 am Could you translate that back into Aussie for us please disco? :scratch: hehehe.
