A visit to Manchester

My daughter and I took my grandson Clark to see Santa in Altrincham (pronounced Alt-ring-ham – strange English pronunciation!).  Unfortunately he didn’t seem to be too interested.  Perhaps next year…

Although it was bitterly cold, we stayed for the switching on of the Christmas tree and town lights.

and met a dog who looked a lot like Loopy.  The only difference was that this one was on a lead – Princess Lucinda Bubblegum would not be seen dead on a lead!

We had a great evening and one of Santa’s elves even gave us some mulled wine and hot chocolate with mallows – yummy!

    1. Cora actually hasn’t got to see Santa yet but she’s pretty sure she whizzed past his sleigh on the SLOSCAP. Rudolph gave her a very strange look! Loopy wasn’t so worried as he wasn’t carrying any food but she would be very interested if she knew how many children leave out mince pies for him and carrots for the reindeer!

  1. I’m pretty sure Santa might nee some help with mince pies, Loopy could be his new helper. He only goes to the good children too so Cora would see how many nice people there are on the planet Earth also
