It's fun!
On each day in December 2007, click on the date, or prior dates, to test your knowledge on how Christmas is celebrated around the world.
I haven't checked it all yet, but it LOOKS like fun :o)
you're supposed to open a page a day during the run up to Christmas, so I've typed a post to keep the thread alive.
for those willing to learn from it ! :P
This is a fabulous website. Is it the idea of a very clever teacher. such fun and so informative. I'm learning a lot!

So I put up a cheerful site - no one wants to visit, cos it's not controversial it's 'happy'.
I'm getting a bit fed up with it, really - I DO know people outside of QL lol
May be time to cultivate those contacts, hmm?
Oops.. double post
Hey Jauntie,
We havent yet interracted much. I mean that bugger KS was like a gr8 wall of china between the two of us.
Why do u wanna quit QL ?
To those I've met, I'm sure we'll meet again. To those I've not met, maybe I shall.
Meantime .. have fun!
I really AM invisible!!!!!!
OMG
You are welcome
seems to me that most people on QL don't like 'happy'.
:o(
nice one, jauntie
too effin sad ...
I hope one or two come to this thread and enjoy it for what it is .. fun, with a little education on the side and some passable music! 'passable' being the operative lol
are you all too set in your own ways to have some fun with the kids and learn a bit about the rest of our planet?!
*strict teacher voice*
tells us all about who does what and whom(?) during the run up to 26 December
AND it's a site from the children :o) That's what Christmas is all about - the children !
Children smash open a
"Piñata".
The piñata is a brightly-coloured paper container filled with sweets and/or toys. It is hung from the ceiling. The children are blindfolded and take turns trying to hit the piñata with a stick until it breaks spilling its contents onto the floor.
LMAO
Hey but the music is SLEIGH BELLS!!!!!
GIDDY OOP!
