Xmas at home
Hi Pauly babes, glad to hear you are having an amazing time, mind you by the time you return home you are probably going to have a pickled liver. Weather here is very Christmassy and I would not like to be any where else over Christmas while Ive got little ones, so you enjoy the hot weather and partying. Couldn't imagine Christmas day in hot Austrailia, not good he he. Anyway have a lovely Christmas and New Year darl. Lisa x
