Summer Xmas cards

One of the curiosities of Xmas in the summer is sending greetings cards.  The vast majority of which still show idyllic little villages covered in snow, while Santa treks across a field with a sack full of toys.  No we all know this isn’t true, Santa flies everywhere with his anti-gravity reindeer – why would he walk?

But anyway, the quandary then becomes,  where’s an Xmas card of a typical southern hemisphere Xmas idyll?  Apart from Pohutukawa tree’s, there are some, just tricky to find.  Of course, if I’d written this before Xmas we’d also have examples of the one’s we sent out – so all I can show you at the moment is the one for Avalon.

So, Santa’s secret is revealed – he is actually The Stig’s twin brother and when not busy they spend all their time in hammocks at the beach!
