I always though they had a very big meal of baked beans before they started off, to give them the extra jet power to travel as fast as they must do. :D :scared: :beer: , maybe give rudolph a few beers to get his nose redder as well.

Alas he didn't have his reindeer with him, but he did have lots of little helpers, all shaking buckets and asking for donations. ;) It seems even Santa feels the pinch at this time of year!

Perhaps it's another sign of the commercialism of christmas - or maybe he was just lending the local Lions Club a hand with their Christmas charity appeal!!

Either way the kids love it :)

Buckets for the oats to feed the reindeer, dazzle!

Nope, I'm sober! :)
