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.

  1. At least he didn't fall asleep with a child on his lap.

    I can understand the need to nap!
    Good night from Virginia, USA. Sleep well wherever you are.

    Great photo! Definition of the reality of the spirit of Christmas. Probably should be a reality check Christmas card!

  7. 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

  8. He makes a great Santa, except for the sleeping part.

  9. Maybe in a decade or two, you can be Santa (when you are old enough.)

  11. I think you mean "knackered." That was a favourite expression of my father's.

  13. It's that time of year and Father Christmas has been working very hard. A little nap is well deserved.

  15. Glad to see Santa on the job this year even if he did need to catch a bit of shut-eye.

  16. 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.

    1. Actually John is only 62 Biebkriebels - the perfect age for a new Santa.
