Santa is Knackered
This is Dave Smith at the Trelawnyd Christmas Fair yesterday, he’s a good egg and always up to play Santa every year . It was obviously hard work as he dropped off halfway through the festivities, one I missed again by being on nights.
Well, Santa needs his sleep, he's got a busy night coming up! Sorry you had to miss it all. Next year - definitely! Maybe you and Dave could take turns with the costume? Ho Ho Ho! xx
If Dave Smith falls asleep in his Santa costume, I suspect that Trelawnyd needs a new Father Christmas and I think I know just the man to replace him. He lives in a cottage opposite the church with a bunch of animals.
At least he didn't fall asleep with a child on his lap.
ReplyDeleteOr in his sack
DeleteIn his sack?
DeleteI can understand the need to nap!
ReplyDeleteGood night from Virginia, USA. Sleep well wherever you are.
Hugs!
I had a few hours this morning woken up by kitten power
DeleteWell done Dave, get those zzzzz's in whilst you can.
ReplyDeleteI think he’d be pleased with the praise
DeleteEven Santa needs a little nap.
ReplyDeleteHo ho ho zzz
DeleteSleep now 'cos with all those chimbleys to climb up and down he's gonna be plum tuckered out!
ReplyDeleteLooking at my waist I think I can ply him next year
DeleteGreat photo! Definition of the reality of the spirit of Christmas. Probably should be a reality check Christmas card!
ReplyDeletePerhaps a TCA Card for next year

ReplyDeleteCheeky cow ho ho ho lol
DeleteHe makes a great Santa, except for the sleeping part.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what the kids made of it
DeleteMaybe in a decade or two, you can be Santa (when you are old enough.)
ReplyDeleteSomething I’m there now lol
DeleteSanta's busy season! Of course, he's tired. ;)
ReplyDeleteIt’s people like Dave that keeps communities like ours going
DeleteI think you mean "knackered." That was a favourite expression of my father's.
ReplyDeleteI was knackered when I wrote it lol
DeleteDave smith is a fucking trooper!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLee xx
It's that time of year and Father Christmas has been working very hard. A little nap is well deserved.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun picture!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see Santa on the job this year even if he did need to catch a bit of shut-eye.

ReplyDeleteHe is so old....
ReplyDeleteActually John is only 62 Biebkriebels - the perfect age for a new Santa.
