 ...and then walked through to see him 
Father Christmas asked what we wanted for Christmas and I told him I wanted a bike
He was very friendly and nice... 
 and he transformed our magic beans into a little Christmas tree which we got to decorate and take home
We all thought it was brilliant and we had such a smiley photo that we decided to take one home
After Father Christmas, we went to stay in Hanbury Manor, where we had a long swim and dinner before watching the final of Strictly Dancing in bed!
