Episode 28: The December Boys (Australia)
Festive Fans Unite! (send us a message)
G’day Mate! We’re so stoked. The Festive Fans are firing the barbie today for holiday tucker — heaps of prawns and snags. We’re putting on some cozies and thongs (well, Mark’s in a budgie smuggler) to enjoy our visit to Straya.
Beware the mozzies because it’s a summer celebration. We’ll be going off, skulling a few frothies, getting some Macca’s, and making a visit to the “December Boys” out in the woop woop. This film is a beauty. Crikey, it’s a bloody good prezzie. There’s orphans, a sea captain, a stunt motorcyclist, and some sick Sheilas. It’s just what you want in your festive film and a real cracker.
We learn how to say “Happy Christmas” like the Aboriginal people: Gaadha Gayaa! Then after brekkie, we’ll spend the arvo at the beach, waiting for Caroling by Candlelight. We’ll also enjoy the sounds of “How to Make Gravy”, a local tune steeped in the Yule culture Down Under. You can truly see, feel, and experience this song by Paul Kelly. He’s a popular fixture of Melbourne folklore and on its music scene. Dardy!
This is a true Aussie Chrissie and it’s good on ya!
