I expect this thread will remain dormant until Christmas 2022. Then I'll challenge you all to the best decorated Model A.

Well, it is almost the end of new years day here ...

For us, this sums up 2021. We've had so much rain that some shrubs in the garden have grown more in the past 12 months than the past 20 years. It is green in the middle of summer, such as I've never seen before.

and this was the previous year "a dogs breakfast".

And so it is Christmas. 2022

Do post a picture of your motorcar in Christmas attire.

Even Fugs gets into the action.

World war one had troops come out of the trenches to celebrate Christmas, share food and drink with the individuals from the other side. When back in the trenches fighting commenced.
Let's celebrate with the whole world as one. Understand that there are differences and except that.
Let's get out of the trenches and celebrate together and enjoy the good that's inside everyone!

Last year we had a warm day on Dec. 10th, so we went out and brought home our cut tree in the Sport Coupe. That's a photo of the car parked on the town square in Painesville, OH all decorated for Christmas.

This month's newsletter from our local club, the NEO chapter of Penn-Ohio included this ad for a "Christmas Day with a New Ford"; note the branch of the bank listed in the ad.

Hopefully I will get a little snow soon and retake some Christmas photos.

Any pics of the '65 GTO with the SD455 engine maybe too

There is no doubt there will be some vernacular you guys won't know but I'm sure you'll get the drift.

Excellent song from 'Down Under'! Thanks for posting. Would like to have a Holden Ute under....err, beside the Christmas tree as a gift.

I like it. Would you mind if I copied it?

I gather that some have no idea what a Christmas cracker is?

Merry Christmas

This is a bush Christmas, at WeeWaa which is a cotton and cereal growing area in central NSW. In addition to the vista, the attire of those in the picture gives them away as farmers or bushes.

A typo, Gary? I suspect you mean "farmers or bushies" - someone from the bush. For our American friends, that is someone from probably a more remote country area.

Ordsgt · 12-25-2022, 04:38 PM

Merry Christmas to all and thank you also for the info on the Ford Barn

No Synchro. That's how I thought it was spelt. Obviously spellcheck never picked it up/differentiated. I got 28/100 for English in my final at school. All these years later I wonder why I even went to school. Except for footie that is.

Had to look up "footie", Merry Christmas to all.
