A Lovely Christmas Story

When four of Santa's elves got sick, and the trainee elves did not
produce the toys as fast as the regular ones, Santa was beginning to
feel the pressure of being behind schedule.

Then Mrs. Claus told Santa that her Mum was coming to visit. This
upset Santa even more.

When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were
about to give birth and two had jumped the fence and were out, heaven
knows where. More stress!

Then when he began to load the sleigh one of the sacks split, and the
toys fell to the ground in the snow.

So, frustrated, Santa went into the house for a cup of apple cider
and a shot of rum. When he went to the cupboard, he discovered
that the elves had finished off the liquor, and there was nothing to drink.

In his desperation, he accidentally dropped the cider pot, and it
broke into hundreds of little pieces all over the kitchen floor.

He went to get the broom and found that mice had eaten the straw end
of the broom.

Just then the doorbell rang, and an irritable Santa trudged to the
door which he opened to find a little angel with a great big Christmas
tree.

The angel said, very cheerfully, "Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't it a
lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me
to stick it?"

And so began the tradition of the little angel on top of the
Christmas tree.
