Topic: Kiwi Christmas Greeting

It is summer here in New Zealand so our Christmas and New Year is a bit differant from the Northern Hemisphere.
Here is a short video I made  a short talking singing song about our December.     Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all.  The sounds not the  greatest as it just done with my laptop with no microphones or fancy tech.

Re: Kiwi Christmas Greeting

So much appreciated, Peatle! Thanks, and Merry Christmas to yourself also. I'm sure I speak for the rest of the Chordie Universe, that we have all appreciated your music, your poetry, your humor, and the in-depth background you often provide us with about so much of the world's great music. You're truly deserving of "The Loremaster" title, and we're fortunate to have you among us.

Re: Kiwi Christmas Greeting

Thank you TF for your kind comments.  I will like to thank you and everyone on here for helping enrich my life. TF your weekly posts have made  me more aware of the genre of Prog rock and how it incorperates a wider range of musical expression more  than I thought possible,.  It has  opened my mind to differant sounds. Also I have been introduced to a feast of exceptional guitarist on your  Flying fingers posts. Chordie Land is a place full of kindness and decency. The knowledge of the folk on here  and the generous way people share  and encourage each other shows me that there is still a good human spirit in this world.  Thank you Chordie.

Merry Christmas Jandle,  I love the way in New Zealand even though it is summer we love to sing Christmas songs with winter themes.

We've been listening to some old/new Australian favourites - "Aussie Jingle Bells", "Six White Boomers", "Santa's got a new truck" ... the kids found a huge load of them smile

Re: Kiwi Christmas Greeting

Richard - sounds like you need to get your guitar  and play some " 90's"  music !

It is 18 (farenheit here at the moment) with snowflakes in the air and the wind at 30 mph

Merry Christmas
