A "Santa School" to train budding Father Christmases has opened its doors in the south of Scotland.

We already have all the frames up for the lights and adverts on the TV.

Christmas stuff is always too early in Aus IMO. On the train home the other day, I saw a big blow-up santa outside a shop. Some idiot had christmas lights up already too.
