Yes a milky drink would be much better, drunk in charge of a sled is not a good idea:-) hugs Jan xx

While what happened to Santa is a humorous limerick please say it is only that because if he doesn't show I'll be sad and frightened by my own child's attitude! LOVE Jan-limericks ... CayCay

Hi Jan, Santa does overdo it occasionally, what should we tell the children? Maybe he will make a New Years Eve delivery! Well done Jan, Hugs galore, Jennifer.
