Title: Santa Tracking and Christmas wishes thread
Post by: gabba on December 24, 2012, 03:53:13 PM
Well that time of year has arrived again when the man with the big beard and big boots takes his annual trip.

Word has it that the elves have been very busy this year, despite Santas nervousness about the end of the Mayan calendar, it appears that everything has turned out ok

Mrs Santa has had the big fella out on an exercise routine this year. Santa has been out loosing a few pounds doing the Gangnam style.

Of course Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without that lovable Rudolph. This year Rudolph is going all hi tech by using solar power to light the way. Unfortunately this has meant that Rudolph has spent much of the Northern Hemisphere summer (which I believe was very wet) lying around charging his batteries, which has made the other reindeer a little annoyed. However things seemed to have calmed down a bit and everyone looks ready to kick off the annual trip.

Anyway onto the important stuff:

Santa Trackers:

Norad track Santa here:

You can of course track him on your iphone app, your Android app, your windows phone, and don't forget a special app for Windows 8 users!

Phillip Duncan of WeatherWatch is busy tonight tracking Santa as well:

Twitter has many feeds...

Anyway, Merry Christmas everyone. Santa will bring you what you deserve I'm sure( In my case I'm not expecting much!), but best wishes to you and your families

Well - that may be so - so use that little bit of paper to buy the next thing you want! ;)
