Californian governor Gavin Newsom has asked for residents to be mindful when leaving out the traditional plate of cookies and milk for Santa after a series of incidents last festive season that derailed deliveries.
Some rascally residents left out their edibles for Santa who suffered some unfortunate mishaps after visiting the golden state back in 2022 and sampled the goodies. Air traffic controllers following Santa’s flight path found that Santa became spatially confused and for a period of three hours was circling the great state before landing on Jim McGurtles roof in Oxnard to fridge surf. Mr McGurtle reported that his kids were shocked to find Santa in the kitchen.

If Santa was to be found guilty of an airborne sleigh incident it could seriously impact Xmas gift deliveries on a scale only seen by Aust Post.
