Father Christmas is the bringer of GIFTS. He works SELFLESSLY & unceasingly without pay to bring JOY & COMFORT to the world once a year, squeezing his mincepie-stuffed body down our chimneys in order that we can save ourselves the need of providing presents to our kids ourselves.

Father Christmas doesn't even obey the laws of physics, so I'm sure he has no qualms about breaching the common law right to quiet enjoyment!0 -
Nothing quiet about all those sleigh bells... Breach of the peace, and drink-fly/driving as well, after all those mince pies and sherry.
The bloke is a menace. Bet he didn't even have a work permit...
Bah humbug!0 -
I'd be more concerned about Father Christmas leaving my children the traditional lumps of coal. We're in a designated smokeless zone.0
