Many years ago, Father Christmas was beginning to feel his age and only just
managed to complete his world tour every year.
So in the June he placed an advertisement in the Fairy & Elev.'s Times
Newspaper for a helper.
The only response he got was from the fairy Queen Titiania who agreed to
help every year in future.
So on her first Christmas she supervised all Santa's little helpers loading
the sleigh with all the presents and off they set.
After a very long an exhausting night they eventually arrived back at
Santa's house.
"Titiania, I am absolutely shattered, please would you put the reindeer in
the barn, give them a rub down and feed them. I am going in doors to
stretch out in front of the fire with a hot toddy and rest. I am almost
dead on my feet".
Off went Titiania and after about two hours went in through the front door
of Santa's house.
As she walked in she called out in a very loud voice which awoke Santa with
a start.
"Santa, I was putting the sleigh away and making sure that everything was OK
and look what I found in back, hidden under a blanket".
>From behind her back she produced a Christmas tree. "What shall I do with
this Santa ?"
He told her, and that is why you always see a fairy on top of a Christmas
tree.
SENDING ALL OF YOU WHEREVER YOU ARE AND WHATEVER THE WEATHER
ALL BEST WISHES FOR CHRISTMAS AND THE NEW YEAR
