Q: What does Christmas mean to you?
Christmas for me is 30 degrees sunny day
Back yard or beach cricket
BBQ with a couple of xxxx (how we spell beer in Queensland )
Kids playing Pokémon battle
Aussie music blasting the neighborhood
With a little Kevin Bloody Wilson and hey Santa Claus
The wife on wechat telling the folks in China how Australians are so funny on this day
Best wishes to all
Hope you enjoy your day
From my family to yours
Merry Christmas
Christmas is about taking a morning walk in fresh clean air.
Spending a few days with family and friends with good food and drink.
Home made cakes and biscuits 
Remembering my friends who are not in the same country as I am.
So cheers and best wishes to all my friends here on ECC who I have got to know over the last few years - you know who you are !!

Well I'm not one of them but I always make the effort to read what you have to say when I'm looking at this thing. You come across as a good person not obviously damaged by living in China for quite a long time. You're probably good company. And you don't likely have enemies.
Merry Christmas to you, Sorrel.
Merry 'Up-yours' to you, too!
Got to improve my Ozz draft 
starting this Christmas.

update: I met (saw) Chinese girl so ...., that my first thought was: 'if she would answer on my Q 'Are you traditional girl?' with 'yes', I could only whisper 'me too ....'
If everything goes by 'plan', I'll consider it as an 'apology' not as a 'gift'! Looong story.
Not so much anymore I don't think. I'm always thinking of my family back home but don't feel the urge to go there or anything. I don't call anyone and I don't do skype, qq, or any of that stuff. No vpn. But this style suits me. I have a wife and she knows to expect I'll have a bottle of plonk and the popcorn I brought back with me while I watch It's a Wonderful Life and Love Actually.
Happy is as happy does.
All the best to your mob, Phil. My wife tells me that many Chinese wives in Australia are quite bored and have nothing to do (she has a qq chat group there). Hope your wife is enjoying her new life.
I didn't celebrate Christmas in America, just another day for me. In China, I usually have a Christmas party with friends, which I always look forward to. It brings a bit of the spirit of home to China.

I'm not a Christmas person... I celebrate about now - Winter Solstice.. Which I'll do alone at home.
In a few days, I'll probably... sit at home and do some work that I need to get done by the 31st.
On any other year... I'd probably sit at home and work on some levelling 
Back howe would have been a BBQ that someone puts on.
maybe when my boy gets older Christmas will mean something,he is to young to understand.
for me I have kinda lost the christmas feeling since being here in China.my work only gives me one day off.
