In the newsagent today, I was picking up the daily paper when a woman came in and looked at the display of Christmas decorations nearby. I don't know what she did differently to everyone else who had passed by, but somehow she set off the Santa Claus figurine. 'HO HO HO,' he bellowed, startling everyone within earshot. The woman waved ineffectively at him. 'No, stop,' she said, but that didn't work. He kept bellowing and she fled to the greeting card section so no-one would know it was her.
Mere seconds later, another noise, this time from the direction of the greeting card section. This time a Santa Claus voice was singing, 'DON'T YOU WISH YOUR GRANDPA WAS HOT LIKE ME?' and when I looked up, I saw the woman quickly closing a card, putting it down and walking away. She's going to have nightmares about Santa Claus this Christmas.
