WHAT DOES SANTA WANT FOR XMAS?
I know exactly know what he wants, he told me the other night. I was at SkyCity where they were going to throw the switch to light up their Xmas lights, all 30,000 of them. Paul Henry was in charge of this most important task, and there were many other well known faces in attendance. Sport stars from The Breakers, The Warriors, and The Blues were also there. Steve Price also popped in.
Of course Santa Claus was there greeting everyone with a very jovial YO HO HO. He was in fact a very good Santa. He would get in every photo and make a real fuss of everyone who posed with him in the photos. He had the voice off to a tee and was convincing in every way.
I had a busy night that night so had to shoot off before the lights got switched on. As I was heading for the door I heard Santa's bellowing voice calling me back. 'Come here young man" and he put his arm around my shoulder and he pulled me in close and said in a broad NZ accent, 'Hey mate any chance you can send me that photo of me and Steve Price ?" Classic. How could you say no to Santa?
Tons of pics to see, so get a coffee and take timeout. Lots still happening out there, the party season has kicked off. Have fun and be safe.
