letter from santa

last year when my little one wrote his letter to santa we put a stamp on it, addressed it to the north pole and put it in the post box.

A few weeks later to my surprise we recieved a reply from Santa. It was a card to put in the window with some stickers to place on the scene and was signed love santa. I am not sure if the post office advertise that they do this but I was very impressed and it didn't cost me a penny.

We will be doing it again this year.

  • The address to write to Father Christmas is:

    Father Christmas
    Santa's Grotto
    Reindeer Land
    SAN TA1

    The Royal Mail will ensure it gets to Father Christmas provided it is sent before 16th December 2004.
  • Oops should read

    Reindeerland

    Are thinking of you today.
