“We booked the Santa pic online. Normally you rock up and wait for an hour in a queue. This time it was quite good. They didn’t want you getting there early. It was very orderly and everyone was on their spot . We were in and out in 15 minutes.” The children missed out on sitting on Santa’s lap this year, keeping a distance of 1.5m. “He had a chat to the kids but it was hard to hear . I think he had a mask on under his beard. I’ve seen pictures with some wearing masks over their beards.”
