It's a tradition in Cape Town - for all the lil boys and girls anyway - that just before Christmas, you go to Noddy's party.
The tradition includes:
a) taking food/clothes for the poor and handing them in at the start
b) getting a tractor ride from the carpark to the castle/entertainment area
c) having heyfights with the straw and throwing straw at Mr Plod
d) calling for the fairy
e) helping the fairy blow out the lights for Fr Christmas to arrive
f) getting a prezzie from Fr Christmas (which your parents handed in earlier - with your name on - secretly)
g) playing the instruments of the marching band
h) singing Christmas carols
i) eating ice creams

The 3 amigos
Waiting for and then sitting on, the tractor.
Emma was a bit wary of the straw fights. But warmed to it when she got to put it in my hair! The moment she knew she was being a bit naughty, she was in!
Opening her prezzie. And lil louis opening his.
The fam, inc granny n grandpa.
Who wants ice cream. We do!
Playing the fool, and the instruments.
