Tell me what you'd like Santa to bring you Kirita!
You know when you're a kid and get taken to the grotto, when you're forced to sit on some strangers knee? Kir looks like she feels that way to me in this pic, hehe! My sister and I hated Santa Claus with a passion, thought he was like some Freddie Krueger character. I used to go stiff as a board as I sat there and not utter a word whilst my sister wailed. Poor men! My Dad once dressed up on Christmas morning too, he borrowed a costume from somewhere and we just freaked when we saw him, the opposite desired effect, Aww! Why is it we couldn't just say "Look everybody, we HATE Santa, OK?"
A work colleague of mine who is very tall and partial to a drink was hired by his local pub to do a Santa DJ thing at a Christmas party for the kids a year ago. They paid him in food and beer but what they didn't bargain for that he would take his payment before his Santa duties began and he got exceedingly drunk and said swear words over his microphone and played death metal. I bet they won't ask him again this year! Plus he ate all the mince pies AND collapsed into a drunken stupor and broke the buffet table. It's so funny that he had planned his debut of stepping into the shoes of Mr Claus to the nth precision, apparently his outfit was impeccable. He just got nervous and started drinking too early. Apparently there were tears a plenty at the party, not just the landlords. I don't know why I had to mention he was tall, I mean he is very tall. Very. A very tall drunken abusive Mr. Claus. I think my sister and I may have liked this sort of Santa!
