TLK Christmas!!!???

[quote="cleargreenwater"]I don't think the TLK characters would celebrate Christmas--while there are certainly vague Christian-esque overtones to parts of the franchise, nothing specifically Christian is ever identified. I doubt they would celebrate Jesus's birthday.

Now Winter Solstice, as a natural occurence, they most certainly would've been aware of. I can see them celebrating that, although it's also good to remember that in the Southern Hemisphere the seasons are reversed. My guess is it would be very hot, lol.[/quote]

Yes that seems more likely!!!
And it is very hot I wish it snowed!!!! But if you have an air-con... its alright!

....They actually had a little 4 part serial comic in the newspaper in 1994 that I'm pretty sure went with a winter solstice celebration.

I cut it out and have it in storage in my attic with my other older TLK stuff. I mean, it was a cheesey little thing, but from what I remember I'm pretty sure it went something like:

Simba was assigned to make the winter solstice celebration, and Scar & the hyenas try to mess it up somehow, but Simba of course manages to pull off a great party. I don't remember the exact deal cause it wasn't the finest quality story, but I remember at the end Scar & the hyenas end up in the lake.

Or maybe it was summer solstice. I don't totally remember truth be told, I just cut it out at the time cause it was TLK :p I WAS definitely a solstice celebration of some kind though!

.....Next time it's daylight out & I can get up into my attic (next weekend probably) I should try to dig it out.



EDIT: *hands Saffyminty a fan, lol*
