...and vodka shots are ready to go!




I command a communal shoulder massage, and the ice is broken in an instant.




One of the bigger parties I've led in my day...in Sydney.




The two MC's for the evening: Ingrid, me




Peter (a.k.a. Santa) and me









Lots of drinking songs, lots of shots.




Lots of cheer, as the Lucia procession descends down the stairs.




singing, gliding in




All lined up, presenting the Swedish Christmas music repertoire.

Martin by the flag




Santa arrives!




with a bag of goodies

Dinner is over, all rise and the big dance starts.




I go from being MC to DJ, and music starts pumping.
