Creepy Christmas Grotto

The parenting site was obviously Mumsnet!

Serious reply though - with the pandemic still at large, I think it would have been better to have held Zoom/Teams meetings. You would book a 5 or 10 minute slot for each child and then a present would come in the post even if it meant it cost a few extra quid.
 
Here's a thought. Why not entertain your kids yourself and buy presents for your kids yourself rather than sub-contracting to some events organiser, in the full knowledge that it's always going to be ****, because you paid the princely sum of about £60. What do you expect for that?

Especially when it comes to some stupid **** made up crap like Santa. Ho ho ho, kids, some fat bloke breaks into your house via your chimney (which modern houses don't even have) in the middle of the night whilst you're asleep. He nicks your food and leaves you presents. But instead of being arrested for being a creepy fat white white guy with a fetish for young kids, it's totally OK because he lives with some magic reindeer at the north pole.

**** garbage, all of it.

I'm amazed that people still fall for this year after year.

Everytime it's a steaming turd.

Every year it's the same tho. Every year some Karen moaning that they went to an event that was basically a muddy field bordering the M2. And it wasn't good enough for little Timmy, no sir; the reindeer were actually alpacas, the presents were cheap and naff, and the elves were recruited from a local homeless centre with the promise of food and fags.

And it was soo horrible, and it really ruined little Timmy's Christmas, poor sausage. Santa smelled of booze and sweat, the elves wouldn't stop smoking and poor Timmy spotted one squatting next to a tree.

Who is going to make this right for little Timmy now??! And how can anyone stand for this? And who can I blame for this travesty that I couldn't possibly have seen coming from a mile away?
 
I'm sure I saw Tulleys farm doing something similar perhaps but not heard of any complaints. I don't have kids but if I did I think I would just try to explain that Santa has to keep a distance like the rest of us.
Personally as a kid I was terrified of Santa and refused to go in the grotto, sending my mum in, instead :D (I mean, would you wanna go in a creepy looking shed with some random bloke?! Lol)

That bloke dressed as scrooge does look creepy though :o

A lot of news outlets now won't specifically name MumsNet as everyone knows it full of Ultra-femenist Karens.

Merry Christmas :D
 
It must be a pretty low time in someones life to be employed by an events company like this standing outside in some woods pretending to be a santa or some other character.
