26th January. Australia Day.
That day when bogans drape themselves in Australian flags and wear offensive T-shirts with slogans like : "Australia. If you don't support it - F$#K OFF!"
We came up with a line yesterday ...may be the start of a song....
'I wear the flag like a xenophobic cloak to protect myself from the threat of compassion'
Anyhoo, I love this country that I call home, I love it's wild and amazing natural forms, flora and fauna, it's happy go lucky attitude (most of the time) and it's relative freedom. And I admit - I do say 'Oi! on occasion....
So, this is our Australia Day 2012:
Flex practicing fire twirling, mates over for a BBQ, celebration down at Woy Woy amidst the pelicans, watching our HS friends rock it hip hop poppin' on the stage, a cool band with an awesome hula hooper, a beautiful lantern parade, Flex performing his FIRST public fire twirling and being slightly overshadowed by the FABULOUS fireworks...we truly are in a lucky country ;)
