Seasonal worker affected by Santa’s delivery service

As anachronistic as an Easter Egg at Christmas or a Bank Holiday in November, a letter, CV and wooden truck from Tony the elf, one of Santa’s little helpers, landed on our desk on 13 January.

Not normally the sort of thing we peruse, particularly on press day, it nonetheless entertained us for at least 30 seconds. Tony is looking for less seasonally-dependent work, his CV gives a precise birth date of 23 June 1660 and the picture may or may not be Duffy managing director Tim Watson with a fake beard.

We’re already looking forward to a Valentine’s card this summer.
