This image has been doing the email rounds with the title XMAS AT CHARNWOOD. Now I can’t confirm the location but it is pretty funny all the same.

Charny Xmas Tree

And as per last year let’s all send in our Xmas tree photos – and beer bottle trees only count if you drank all the beer yourself 😉

My first reaction was that’s UC…the ALDI beer (MVP) I’ve been told is alright. It’s about $30 a case, maybe less. Dan Murphy’s been selling KB by the case.

Yeah, it looks like old ressies at UC… ha…

Yeah it looks like the grass area between the library and Building 5 (Education).

I can confirm that is definitely UC

Can you even buy KB larger in Canberra?

Isn’t the blue box beer from ALDI?

Well, we have to train our future engineers somehow…

I’d have to agree with blub – my reaction was “that looks like UC old ressies” – and that was a long time ago!

Can’t be anywhere in QLD because the beer cartons are not XXXX.

And on reading the post above the post above I stand corrected.

Ill go now to eat my hat in silence

If its anywhere on the eastern seaboard I would say the rocks district in Sydney judging on the building in the background – not many redbrick arched windows to be seen in Canberra.

Hahah.
That’s UC Old Ressies.

Charnwood ? I would have just assumed ‘Belconnen’

🙂

When I received it a couple of weeks ago, it was “Queanbeyan”…

That rocks!

I got this earlier but titled “Wishing you a Redfern Central Christmas..” which I found amusing. Now with the edit of ‘Charnwood’ and the suggestion of a reproduction, it wouldn’t at all surprise me if one DID sprout up in Charnwood somewhere!

I don’t care where it is, that’s cool. (Unless you’re a trolley collector I guess)

Ouch! Tough crowd. The email was sent to me as “XMAS AT CHARNWOOD”, I didn’t take the image nor am I standing by the accuracy of the title and I don’t know Charny that well to say one way or the other BUT it is funny all the same.

Some enterprising young northsiders could always do a reproduction…

But, to use the ex-PM’s wording … it “adumbrates” Charnwood.

I can’t confirm the location

So are you actually stupid… or just pretending

nah it’s not charny, just a random pic sent around on email.
