Today I ended up at this site: emailsanta. Someone wanted me to add the Javascript sleigh thing to their site. Anyway, I was messing about on it a bit and Ali said I should put my letter (and reply) from Santa on here.

Dear Father Christmas,

My name is Helen. I am a girl and I am already 24 years old!! I live in the great city of Leicester. Of course, that's in United Kingdom, but I'll bet you knew that!!

This year I've been so good that my halo is just a teensy weensy bit crooked!

Father Christmas, some things that I might like for Christmas this year are a Medion PC for my friend Ali, a new plasma TV without dodgy scart sockets and a classic Amiga CD32 with lots of games.

P.S. Father Christmas, I almost forgot to say... I have tried very hard to be good but I just got engaged and it's very tempting to be naughty before I'm married. I'll keep trying hard and maybe presents will help take my mind off things.

Love, Helen

Merrrryyyy Christmas Helen!!

Thank you for sending me your email all the way from Leicester! The Net sure is wonderful because now I can get emails from Leicester and around the world in the blink of an eye. Even Rudolph gets emails... from pets! Why, here's Rudolph right now! HO!! Ho!! ho!! He just asked me to say 'Hi!' to you!

My goodness, Helen! You're getting to be quite a big girl! Wow, 24 years old already! Pretty soon you'll be too big to sit on Santa's knee! (Ho! Ho! Ho!) Well, even though you're getting a little older Helen, Santa's glad to see you still have the Christmas Spirit! I also hear you've been a really good girl. (Of course, you won't mind if I do a little checking, will you? HO!! Ho!! ho!!).

Let's see what you put in your letter for Christmas wishes: 1. medion pc for my friend ali; 2. new plasma tv without dodgy scart sockets and; 3. classic amiga cd32 with lots of games. HO!! Ho!! ho!! Those ARE good presents Helen! We've been so very busy this year that I hope you won't be too upset with me if you don't get everything you want for Christmas.

Oh no! Rudolph just sneezed and now there's Nose Wax everywhere! I'll see you soon but now I have to go clean off my computer because it's glowing like Rudolph's nose! Take care Helen and don't forget to come back and visit me here at EmailSanta on Christmas Eve!! And remember... only 11 more sleeps until Christmas!!

Season's Greetings!

Santa

P.S. The reindeer say "Thank You!" for the nice treats! I hope you don't mind, but I had a bit of carrot and celery too. After all, even Santa eats his veggies! (*wink*)

P.P.S. I've attached a special postmarked copy of your email below so you can print it off and show it to all your friends or put it on your fridge.

Interesting, eh?

Honestly, I can't really think of much I'd like for Christmas. Now I have a Rob I don't really need other things to use up my time. *sigh*

I'll stop before I get too soppy. ;)

Bye!
