Here's a yule tide funny. Got sent this image this morning of a Christmas tree, supposedly from Frankston. If you don't know where Frankston is, or know nothing of its reputation, lets just say that it is often the punchline to a lot of jokes. Frankston seems to be one of the more common suburbs/towns to feature in any of those jokes that involve "insert lower socio-economic group here".
Here's a common example:
A Frankston girl goes to Centrelink to register for child benefit.
"How many children?" asks the assessor.
"Ten" replies the Frankston girl,
"Ten?" says the Centrelink worker.
"What are their names?"
"Nathan, Nathan, Nathan, Nathan, Nathan, Nathan, Nathan, Nathan, Nathan and Nathan"
"Doesn't that get confusing?"
"Naah..." says the Frankston girl, "Its great because if they are out playing in the street I just have shout 'NATHAN, YER DINNER'S READY!' or 'NATHAN GO TO BED NOW!' and they all do it..."
"What if you want to speak to one individually?" says the perturbed Centrelink worker.
"That's easy," says the Frankston girl... "I just use their surnames"

So now you have some Frankston background, here's a picture of a Christmas Tree in Frankston.
