This little reindeer always brings a...

Apparently, vast sums of money are spent every year on treats for Father Christmas and his entourage, including the reindeer. Naturally, the glass of sherry is always empty when the children come downstairs on Christmas morning,...

Here is part II of my story about Santa’s sleigh.
“By thunder, heh heh, pardon the pun,” said Donner “I’ve got it. It’s just hit me like a bolt of Blitzen. Cupid and Comet can be the wheelers – or should that be runners? –...

Following my 100-word Christmas themed story, I thought I might as well beat you over the head with this one. It’s much longer so I’ll split it in two. Feel free to pass but no reindeer were hurt or killed in the writing of this....

So, today I started decorating our tree. To me, there's something missing. I might add some tinsel and will need to add candy canes, but I don't know if that will help or not? What do you put on your Christmas tree?
We have...

Donnybrook, Western Australia, now has a local radio station. This has given local writers the chance to have their stories and poems broadcast over the air. I thought I'd share this one with you. I don't know if they'll use it...

We saw these reindeer while up in Ripon (again, they were celebrating Christmas more than a month early). They were fenced in so kids couldn't pet them. But, they were still pretty cool to see.

Yes, more than 300 reindeer in Norway were struck dead by lightning!! Apparently reindeer are like cattle, they huddle together during a storm and that's why that many reindeer were killed at one time.
