S e c r e t s:
This year, Santa has discovered that someone made off with his work clothes and dressed a snowman with them. The hoof prints in the snow may point to the culprits, or could the initials “PC” be a clue (or possibly an attempt to frame our favorite master carver). The name of the sculpture, “Guest Worker”, implies that Santa might not mind the prank – delivering billions of Christmas gifts is hard work! The lid is a reminder of the joke, “What is the difference between snowmen and snow-women”. Peter’s “snowomen” is a bit dodgy and he says it’s the result of being too lazy to check the correct spelling. Santa’s badge proclaiming “I’m 47” combines Peter’s children’s ages (Millie is 4 and Sam is 7). Within the box figurine, a reindeer pleads his innocence.
