Christmas Day in Wangarratta is a unique experience. We started with an early lunch at Mat and Kristy's Mum's where 10 sat down to Mat's infamous dish of a duck inside a chicken inside a turkey ( that maybe a chicken first the duck then a turkey) anyway it is delicious. Liz, Mat's mum also baked an enormous ham and roast pork. The whole meal was a meat fest which lasted 3 hours as we opened presents between courses. All very enjoyable. I volunteered to be the driver so then ferried Mat, Kristy, Colin, Tom, Sarah and David from Liz's to Alan's house to catch up with Mat's grandparents and uncle and various other family members and friends. Much hilarity followed in the pool and as Tom said he wasn't going to swim, Mat threw him in fully clothed. Mat then provided 'tea'...........Oysters, huge barbecued prawns, lobster salad, mussels in tomato sauce with pasta, green salads and bread. This was followed by Nan's pavlova and a trifle and the second of Kristy's home made Christmas puddings! An enormous amount of Noel's and Alan's home brewed beer flowed throughout the afternoon and evening. I went to bed vowing never to eat again.
