Ilkeston Cam - Searching For Santa
w/e 08 December 2002
As we get ever nearer to the 25th, I thought it was about time
I got my Christmas List to Santa. Wanting to hand it over to
him personally I thought this would be a good place to start.
With a window full of toys, it seemed a good bet that the red
clad man would be inside.
|
I soon found his cabin but despite a roof full of presents and
a couple of sacks inside (inset), I'm afraid there was no-one
home.
|
Better try his residence at the retail outlet at South Normanton
then, I thought, but even though the sign said "Queue here
and be patient", I decided against joining the queue as
he would not be here until the following day!
|
This elusive man sure is a man of property but even at another
abode at the Centre Spot in Derby, there was no sign of him.
It appears that I was not the only one searching for him as someone
else was peering through the door in his Grotto.
|
Maybe he was around the corner in the Eagle Centre, I mused but
even here he was conspicuous by his absence and his majestic
seat was empty.
|
Success! At last I tracked him down at a supermarket in Spondon
near Derby. Now. where did I put that list?
