Deep Water

Passed by the Leeds Liverpool Canal at Morton on our way home from R's latest appearance as Santa - where he could have found himself in deep water

As R was doing his present distribution and talking to the children - his voice was recognised - by 5yo's best friend - who thankfully didn't let the rest of the assembled company know that this was not Father Christmas - but H's granddad.

R gives his services for free - but some form of gift is always presented to him
As the venue today was a hotel - payment was in the form of a free meal

Yum - presume he's taking me
