In a surprise announcement from Father Christmas Inc headquarters in Lapland it has been revealed that Santa has been developing some modern systems thinking and best business practice to offer an enhanced service this year. By using new state-of-the-art computer systems his helpers have been able to compile not just the traditional "Nice Girls" and "Naughty Girls" lists but a further list titled "Very Naughty Girls."
It is promised that for the first time ever he will be using new logistics techniques and modern delivery equipment in order to be able to make additional visits to those on the new "Very Naughty Girls" list.
A spokesman has said that although this is a significant break from the tradition of Santa not visiting naughty girls on Christmas Eve, the format of the visits will also be non-traditional. No details of this planned format are being released before the big night but the spokesman hinted that time constraints may not always allow the task to be fully completed in which case Santa would be leaving appropriate implements and instructions with a third party in order to complete the task on Christmas morning. In what is being seen as a cryptic clue we were told that there was a direct relevance in the announcement being made from Lapland as "Santa's lap may play a big part in what happens on the night."
"We think this could be the reddest Christmas ever!" he added.
Happy Christmas everyone!

A wonderful development for which Santa must be thanked. I have started on a list for him. It promises to be quite long at the moment. Merry Christmas...indeed.
