    Aww, I think it has to be something about the actual situation because he knows who santa is and he brings presents etc but the actual sight of him is just too much

    I think its because kids read people by the way they look, and all you see is a big beard and a head of white with eyes peeking through !! Its enough to scare anyone !!

    ooh that sounds a bit sciencey but spot on! they need to see the eyebrows n mouth to know if they're friendly or not

    I must remember never to shave my eyebrows then.

    I have a decision to make.....go to bed and not sleep or stay up and get tired and go to bed :confused:

    Okay, well i'm going to sleep, or at least to bed.

    I hope to speak to you all tomorrow. Get the "more fish in the sea" cliches ready :o

    Hope you all have a nice relaxing Sunday, if the little ones allow you ;)

    hmmm, guess I'm the last one up tonight then !!
    Not going to bed just yet, am trying to get the living room finished as I decided in my wisdom, that now would be a good time to rearrange the furniture !!
