From Father Christmas’ Workshop, The North Pole

Dear Megan,

Ho ho ho, it’s almost Christmas. Thank you so much for the letter you sent to me. I have read it from beginning to end and will do all that I can to give you the presents you would like to receive. Moreover, why shouldn’t I because you have been a really good child the entire year! Although it’s not looking at all like you are going to get a white Christmas over there in Ireland it will surely be a white Christmas here at the top of the world. Truthfully, it’s white here every day of the year! Yes, I know that some people and children alike think I live in Lapland, but in all honesty that is only a base, one of many I use to get the children’s presents to them on time each Christmas Eve.

Well, Megan, I had better sign off for now as I still have a lot to do before I set off this coming Christmas Eve.

From,

Santa, Father Christmas, for sure.

PS My favourite tipple and treat is mince pie and a glass of brandy.
