Santa's Boomers

Santa's Boomers

20aef0a8.jpg

Thought I'd share the big scoop ahead of the holidays!  I've been secretly Skyping the elves at the headquarters of SC Enterprises Inc, and the CEO, old SC himself, is already in his colonial workshop here in Oz.  This, of course, is where he starts his annual run with those six white boomers (see video proof below) in the blistering summer heat down under, before he puts on his winter fur coat and comfy winter undies and swaps over to Rudolph et al.

The author of the above, Ken Boddie, besides being a sometime poet and occasional writer, is an enthusiastic photographer, rarely leisure-travelling without his Canon, and loves to interact with other like-minded people with diverse interests.

Ken's three day work week (part time commitment) as a consulting engineer allows him to follow his photography interests, and to plan trips to an ever increasing list of countries and places of scenic beauty and cultural diversity.

You're the role model for such a writing mode, Ken. I sometimes write into fun mode, but in Croatian language. Thanks for the greetings! I send you ho to the 3rd power, too.

Hope you had a Merry Christmas, Lada, and that Santa was good to you. Here's hoping we can prise more engineers out of design and construct mode and into fun writing mode in the New Year. I live in hope but am not holding my breath. Ho↑3

I was always wondering what it would be like to celebrate Christmas and New Year in a hot climate. A Christmas tree along with the pink Bermuda shorts and jandals (I’ve learned a new word). :) I've read that many Australian families take their Christmas dinner to the beach for a Christmas Day picnic. Thanks for this amusing buzz, Ken. I agree with Irene - you're awesome! Wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

If you come across a couple of lost looking Melbournians in Sri Lanka, Paul, my daughter and her husband are currently holidaying there. Selamat Hari Natal, Pak Paul.

Jandals, Kev, are what stop your feet from burning at the beach on Christmas Day. They can also be used as a fan to fire up the barbie, or you can throw one at your favourite Uncle Arthur, to keep him awake when the Queen comes on the TV.

#18 I have only heard rumours of the existence of said photo. If you received one through the mail, it is likely from a Christmas troll.

I bet boomers are faster than reindeer! Borrowed from the Beibs huh? That's ok, I forgive you lol. This was cute, Merry Christmas Ken Boddie and thanks to beBee I've met wonderful people like yourself and others you've tagged. Enjoy the holidays, eat and drink as much as you need ;-)

Just checked the cellar, all I've got is Maotai, the distilling process of which is apparently so pungent, the whole town of Maotai reeks of fermenting sorghum.

Shoosh! Don't let everyone know my secret. Just make sure you leave me out a glass of single malt on the 24th ..... and a couple of choice carrots for Rudolph.

There is no way he'd fit in my pink Bermies Ken-san, what are you implying? 👿 Not a fan of Justin Bieber, Justin case you were wondering. Now Justin BeBee is a different matter. You have a wonderful Christmas! 🎄☃️ Of all the bees I know, you'd make the best SC.
