Where is the god damn snow?!

December 1, 2006 | 8:18 am

snowman_ani.gifIts the first of December today and I am still waiting for it to snow… Not a sign of it anywhere! The stores have had to resort to using fake snow and turning the air conditioning down so that poor old Santa doesn’t go the way of the wicked witch of the west and melt away. Perhaps I’m mistaken, perhaps it doesn’t snow in New Zealand in the middle of god damn summer! But I can’t be wrong! I mean everywhere you look are snowmen, reindeer and heavily overweight guys in thermal underwear and red lounge suits… To quote my eloquent sister:

Whats worse is that the majority still insist on using snowmen, snow covered plastic fur trees, Polarbears??, giant fake snowflakes, cotton wool as snow and Santa dressed up to the nines in fur! ITS SUMMER AND WE LIVE ON A PASIFIC ISLAND!!! So as you can tell it shits me a bit. Why cant we use the Pohutakawa as our tree? and sand as our snow? Santa can keep the beard, but maybe dust off the stubbies or something?

Hear hear I say! Odds on when Santa comes whistling through the south pacific he will be stripping of the thermals and giving his lilly whites a chance to get a little bit of sun before they go back into hibernation for the next 12 months.
