Wow! A group of posties at Depot 2 in Surrey have answered over 1200 Santa letters since they put on their elf clothes Nov.28 and began doing a bit of overtime for the big guy up north. That's in the range of 100 letters read, thought about and replied to by each of these Santa's helpers. A lot of smiles, tears, sore hands and happy kids.
I shouldn't be so surprised, though. Santa only hires the best people for his very special work. He appreciates your efforts and I'm positive the parents and all of the kids do even more. Reading and responding to these kid's wishes has got to be one of the best ways to bring out the real Christmas spirit in anyone. If you've never done it, I strongly encourage you to try it next year.
Thanks so much to all of you who enjoyed doing it this year.
