My granddaughter in Sydney said she went to see Father Christmas (well, we are discussing religions) but that he was only a pretend one and she had written to the real one when Daddy was doing something or other (memory fails me) and do I know what (big huge pupils, probably on smack) the REAL Father Christmas wrote back thanking her for writing to him, look, look, showing me the evidence.

The same as the fireworks industry: producing all the stuff for the one day.

Do you think they have raves?

No, they have chickens. (I first read that as ravens)

Chocolate chickens?

Last _{that would be odd} Post

Chickens would melt in your hands.
