Winston Comes for a Visit

One day the North Pole received an unusual visitor....
Picture
Everyone stopped what they were doing, and turned to look. 
​It wasn't every day they had a dragon drop in...
Picture
Winston had been missing his friends, so had decided to fly up north for a visit...
Picture
..and he'd brought along a poinsettia for his best friend...Willie...

A Stocking for Winston

Winston wanted to hear all about what Willie had been up to...
"Well, one thing I've been doing, is helping to make stockings.."
Picture
"These look really great!"
'They are even nicer when they are full of goodies..."
Picture
Picture
Picture
"Wow, I wish I had a Christmas stocking..."
Picture
Then Chloe came over....
Picture
"We made this stocking specially for you!"
Picture
"Wow, this is so cool !!  Thanks so much!!"
"Santa will be able to fit a lot of stuff in here!!"
Picture
Picture
"We are so glad that you like it..."
Picture
Picture
Picture
"I don't like it....I LOVE it!!"
Picture

Working Hard

The elves were all very busy.
Picture
Peach was supervising Tillie and Efreet, as they worked on bird houses....
Picture
..and it was Ringo's job to paint the rocking horses....
Picture
"That's another one done.  Now just ONE more!!"
Picture

Willie's New Ride

With all the stockings done, Willie's new job was to transport all the teddies from the Stuffing Department, over to Packaging....
Picture
"This is fun!!"
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
And off she'd go....again....."Watch out!! Coming through!!"
Picture

the Wrong Paint Job

Ringo was getting tired, but he was on the very last of the rocking horses. 
​Just one more and he'd be done!
Picture
But then Effie came in with Santa.  "You're doing it wrong!!"
Picture
"These last two were supposed to be painted like zebras..."
Picture
"... Like this one..."
Picture
Picture
And here he had thought that he was almost done!!
Picture
The elves at the nearby work table looked over with sympathy.....
Picture
"You're going to have to repaint that one you just did, and then do the last one like that too..."
Picture

Santa to the Rescue

Santa felt sorry for Ringo, who was feeling very down, and ever so embarrassed.
​So he put on his work apron...and pulled up a chair...
Picture
..and he handed Ringo an apron too...
Picture
"Here, I'll help you, and together we'll be done them in no time!"
Picture

the Last Stuffies

When he was finished helping Ringo, Santa headed over to the Stuffing Department for a final check....
Picture
Nami had the last of the camels...
"These Indian elephants are very nice too"
Picture
Picture
Chloe was doing a final check....
Picture
"'This one is my favourite..."
Picture
Picture
"Well, it looks like we are done!"
Picture

Staff Photo

With the last of the toys packed up, and the workshop all neat and tidy, it was time for the annual, official Staff portrait....
Picture

Puppet Show

With everything done, and it still being early and not yet time to for Santa to leave, everyone gathered to watch the annual puppet show...
Picture
This year it was Ringo's turn to put on a play....
Picture
Everyone loved it!!
