Christmas Comes Early

Father Christmas proved he can work more than one day a year with a special guest appearance at a children's Christmas Party work held for local kids this evening.

All good fun... Or so you would think... For the second year running, it kicked off... During the under 6's pass-the-parcel game, a parent who was helping their daughter move the parcel around dragged the present towards her daughter and held on until the music stopped when the game was on the final round... This led to a face-to-face shouting match with another mum.. In the end, the lady and her 2 kids plus another woman and her 3 kids left before Santa's arrival..

What a great example for their kids eh!

Last year there was trouble as well when one boy, about 8 years old, was given a book as a present resulting in his mum coming up to us at the end of the evening complaing " A book!!! What the f__k is he gonna do with a book"... Honestly, you couldn't make it up lol....
Priceless. And look at those eyes. The e numbers talking?

Too bad about the parents not understanding the spirit of the holiday. However, you got one fantastic shot of the event. Father Christmas sure has a cutie next to him! These stories should be on some comedy show, like Saturday Night Live here in the states....

That is one of the saddest Christmas stories I have ever heard. What to do with a book indeed. I hope he grows up to be an author.

Great catch of this little cutie and her big poinsetta bow.

A nice cheery picture. Very festive. She looks happy. About the mom and the book.. ummm ... read it? Does she not know how to say "thank you"?

Oh my goodness...... what to do with a book? How about read it? This poor child. I feel the urge to adopt him. Some days I think parents should have to pass a test before giving birth. :)
But this is a darling photo of a happy little girl with a shine in her eye.
