Christmas In July
The 15th of July 2007,
'The View'
hmm..... let me ask most of all of everybody weather or not they can Remember/or Not, the last Christmas they did have..... was it a joyous occasion with many presents, lots of food, Cherished Family members???
Please let me explain in more detail.... most of US......
-Know how much of a marketing ploy Christmas IS, (n there fore NO $$).......
-Know how cherished family are either on the other side of the world/ unable too move/ too 'POOR'(for lack of a better word)/ or there already with god celebrating,(yes actually celebrating the birth of Jesus)/dead)....
-Know that if they were to go and 'BUY' presents that they would probably die of starvation before their presents worth....
SOOO........... ...... ..... ....
PlanetNickOlly decided with the small contribution from the Wollongong City Council, as well as a couple of local business Hence with which Planet was provided 'Lucky Door Prizes'...
And So It Began.....
A Christmas that would be able to be enjoyed, for the simple reason that one there was no media hype to force people into doing stuff the really didn't want to do..
Eventfully SUNDAY...
Begins(after much cooking and organization) with a trip down to the local church to see how many people were able help/volunteer for the days events..
To our surprise was that they were mainly ready with just a few scones to butter and jam, and the bread to remove from the freezer...all brilliant on the church front..
After a couple of hours later with many a bread sliced and now buttered as well. The task was on to migrate all and everything down to the Centre/Hall..
Arrival to the hall was hectic with food to be set out, Pro-Wrestling Ring to be setup, salads, coffee, tables, chairs, ETC all had to be organized/made...
KICK OF AT 3PM
The wrestling match was between the local Parish Priests in which only to be fair ill say that it was a tied match (You will just have to watch the video, lol)...
Food was it seamed to be one of the more popular items(lucky the was a sh*%load of it).
And yes open Mic was meant to be on the agenda not that there was an extreme amount of people jumping up and down to get on stage, which mind you the local talent that is Corey sung and played the afternoon to a finish absolutely beautifully..
From what could of been (only the people involved come).. To what seamed like the whole community showed up with quite easily the number of people greater by far over the 100 mark...
It IS/Was a Christmas to be thankful for.......
if only everyone was physically able to be there.
