You can't take us anywhere.
Australia has become a second home to many Irish in recent years. Some make the long journey home for Christmas, others soak in the Aussie summer sun and trade turkey with the full trimmings for a few shrimp on the barbie. Notions.

This short clip, which was sent into our brothers over at JOE, was filmed by Cavan man Stephen Tormey in Cairns on Christmas Eve.

Thanks to Stephen Tormey for sending this our way.If you have something you would like to share with us, send it to hello@her.ieor hit us up on Facebook or Twitter.
