Merry Christmas from Australia

[Coinneach]

Hi @Swagman! I'm sitting back reading the forum after a lovely Christmas Day with family, lots of food and drink, visitors have just left, wife is nodding off on the lounge.

I love your olde classic card . Beautiful. I'm not sure if you are aware, but the line on the card is a reference to a fine poem by Robert Herrick written back in the early 1600s. The poem is a Carpe Diem type of piece - Seize the Day! Ironically, that Kangaroo seems to be doing anything but: sitting back reclining, fishing and drinking, pipe on his blanket ready for leisurely smoking ...

Thanks for sharing, and thanks for the best wishes. All the very best to you and yours too!

Here ends the lesson ; and my apologies too, retired English teacher .

Thanks again.

Cheers, Pete
