The Farmers 19 metre Santa will be back for his 49th year (the NZ Herald reports) after a survey found him good rather than evil. Some don't like his wink (or gammy eye) and beckoning finger, but nevertheless he will take up his place again on the Whitcoulls building on Queen Street, after a bit of restoration. I look forward to seeing him again. Looking at this old photograph I wonder what happened to his sleigh and reindeer?
