Dear Santa/God

I had tried Santa, the tooth-fairy, and even George Lucas but no-one was willing to help me
. As a last resort I asked Gordon Brown, here is his reply.
Dear Sam,
Thank you for your letter asking for government help in dealing with your debts. I do agree you have been reckless in becoming indebted by such an amount, however I regret that you do not fit the government's criteria for assistance.
If you can increase your debt by approx 6 zeros, pay yourself bonuses of several million pounds and bully your customers who have made far smaller mistakes than yourself then we will be delighted to take over your debts for you. At that point you will be free to walk away to your retirement home in the sun.
Regards,
Gordie,

you could put a request into Santa but I had an email from him a while ago...he might be being made redundant soon so he's now considering a DMP as he can't afford to pay for all the presents.
As for the tooth fairy...well I don't know where she's gone!Debt 30k in 2008.:eek::o Cleared all my debt in 2013 and loving being debt free

Santa doesn't like hot sunny homes - he's used to Iceland and investing in Icelandic Banks!
Maybe he should start shopping in Iceland...Debt 30k in 2008.:eek::o Cleared all my debt in 2013 and loving being debt free

My letter,
Dear Santa,
Could you please fill up all your reindeer, Rudolph, Dancer and Prancer, Donner and Kebab, Comet and Cupid, Vomit and Stupid, with the best quality bran and laxatives.
Then could you fly over Lesbourne Road in Reigate, hover above 1st Credit and let rip.
I promise to be a good boy all year.
Thank You,
Pepe
:D stay wonky
