We saw “IBM Father Christmas” yesterday. Yes, that’s his name. He brings presents to all of the boys and girls of IBM parents, then he goes off to help the normal Father Christmas, apparently. He also provides a magic show, disco, face painter and card making station. He’s pretty amazing.
Even though I’ve started my blog in the New Year, I want to back up a little and take a look at Christmas since I missed out on blogging it. So over the next month (Seahorse arrival depending) there will be posts of what we get up to on Christmas Days and any other special…
