Busy Father Christmas

Tuesday, December 29th, 2009

 

Are you ready?we will have Christmas at once?now our Father Christmas or Santa Claus Will have busy work?great work. Letâ??s see what he will do in his biggest night of the year.

There are roughly 2 billion children worldwide. However, assuming Santa doesn’t visit the children of Hindu, Muslim, Jewish, atheist and so on parents, that leaves the 35 per cent or thereabouts whose parents consider themselves Christian. That’s still an impressive 700,000,000 children in a night. Assuming three children per household, that’s 233,000,000 stops for Santa and his sleigh. There may be a few households where all the children have been naughty, but we are going to discount them for statistical purposes. Santa will therefore have to travel a total of 342,510,000km (212,030,000 miles) to finish the job with the sleigh a speed of 10,703,437. 5km/hr (6,650,807. 72mph).

 

Assuming each child gets the Transformer Optimus Prime, the leader of the Autobots, for a present, in his box, Santa will be carting 659g (1. 45lb) per child. That’s 461,300 metric tonnes, or about the same in imperial tons, total. For comparison, a Boeing 747-8I airliner can carry 237. 5 tonnes in passengers, luggage and fuel.

 

Optimus Prime is worth £42. 99 new. Santa will therefore have to spend a grand total of £30,093,000,000 to provide each child with one, or risk arrest by having his elves make illegal copies. This is the equivalent of the gross domestic product of Costa Rica.

 

Santa Claus?we are waiting for you.

Christmas Golf

Four old-timers were playing their weekly game of golf when one one of them commented on how nice it would be to wake up on Christmas morning, roll out of bed – and without an argument, go directly to the golf course to meet his buddies for 18 holes. All three of his friends unanimously agree, ?Let?s do it! We?ll make it a priority, figure out a way and meet here early Christmas morning!?

A few weeks later it?s Christmas morning – and there all are standing next to each other on the first tee box. One friend exclaims ?Boy this game cost me a fortune! I had to buy my wife such a huge diamond ring, she can?t even take her eyes off it. ? Another friend says, ?I spent a ton, too. My wife is at home planning the cruise I gave her. She was up to her eyeballs in brochures. ? The third friend replies ?Well, my wife is at home admiring her new car? reading the manual. ? Silence from the fourth guy?

The other three friends in the group look puzzled, while the final guy in the foursome is staring at them like they must have lost their minds. ?I can?t believe you all went to such and expense for a round of golf. I just woke up, slapped her on the butt and said, ?Well babe, Merry Christmas! Golf or sex, what?s it gonna be?? and she said ?Take a sweater. ?

A Busy Christmas Time In Store For KD Decoratives

Wednesday, December 16th, 2009

With less than a month to go before Christmas Day, everyone is rushing around preparing for the season’s festivities. As always, some are more prepared than others, but few can claim to be as organised as the KD Decoratives’ team. Before most people even thought about digging their Christmas decorations from the loft, KD Decoratives’ team was busy delivering and installing Christmas decorations in shopping centres, town squares, theme parks, cruise ships and restaurants. And not just in the UK. The KD Decoratives’ team has travelled almost around the world, installing their amazing Christmas decoration displays as far afield as Ireland, Germany, Italy and the Caribbean. After two months hard at work, it’s time for KD Decoratives’ team to sit back, relax and enjoy the stunning Christmas Decorations and Christmas displays they’ve created. They certainly deserve a rest. Just days ago, over one hundred people from KD Decoratives were travelling the country, installing awe-inspiring Santa’s grottos, enormous Christmas trees, delightful Christmas rides, literally hundreds of thousands of flashing Christmas lights and creating Christmas wonderlands for visitors to enjoy. It’s a major operation transporting all the finished Christmas decorations and Christmas trees to their final destination. Having been designed and created over the spring and summer months, by KD Decoratives’ talented artists, sculptors and musicians, the Christmas decorations and Christmas trees are carefully packed into lorries ready for delivery. With over 90 shopping centres, town centres, restaurants, pubs, theme parks and cruise ships to service, hundreds of huge lorries were needed to take the Christmas displays from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire to their destination. Yet, it’s thanks to the hard work of the KD Decoratives team that families can now gaze at beautiful Christmas decorations and visit Santa in the most amazing Santa’s grottos. Indeed Christmas decorations are an important part of a company’s marketing plan, which is why KD Decoratives delivers mainly bespoke Christmas decorations, individually tailored to the needs of each customer. There are Christmas animatronics displays to keep children (and adults) amused, Christmas decorations to delight shoppers and external Christmas light displays to attract attention, which all help to encourage visitors and improve the visitor experience during this important trading period. At KD Decoratives, nothing is left to chance. The professional installation teams are all employed by KD Decoratives, meaning that they are experienced and knowledgeable at installing Christmas displays. They also know how to dress and hang the Christmas displays to achieve the desired look. To avoid any disruption to customers and visitors during the day, KD Decoratives works closely with the management team. In most cases, Christmas displays, Christmas trees, Christmas wreaths, Santa’s grottos and the thousands of Christmas lights not to mention the all-singing, all-dancing Christmas animatronics displays – are all installed overnight, when shopping centres, restaurants and theme parks are closed. This year, a number of shopping centres have taken their Christmas decorations to a new dimension. Over the busy Christmas shopping season, visitors will be amazed by the Christmas animatronic grottos, featuring singing reindeer, dancing snowmen and jolly Santas. Some shopping centres and large stores have even installed KD Decoratives’ Christmas rides, with working trains taking customers for festive journeys around the Christmas decorations. While others have gone a step further with 3D interactive Christmas displays and Santa’s grottos that engage and entertain kids and adults alike. Eye-catching Christmas wreaths, thousands of Christmas baubles, sophisticated Christmas drapes and chandeliers have turned many shopping centres, pubs and restaurants into winter wonderlands. Of course, no Christmas display would be complete without a Christmas tree and at KD Decoratives, they’ve delivered hundreds ranging in size from five to 35 feet, which certainly make the shopping centres stand out. Once installed by KD Decoratives, most shopping centres make the most of their Christmas decorations by inviting celebrities to officially turn on the lights. Trafford Centre, invited X-Factor stars and chart-topping group JLS to switch on their lights, which KD Decoratives designed, created and installed for the 11th year running. KD Decoratives supplied and installed the Christmas lights for its home town of Huddersfield, who invited the world famous Star Trek and X-Men actor, Patrick Stewart, to perform the light switching honours. At the same time, singer Mariah Carey was turning on the Westfield White City Christmas lights in London, where KD Decoratives created a magical, and enormous, ice palace as the Santa’s grotto. Although KD Decoratives will still be busy with cleaning Christmas displays, general maintenance and in a few weeks time, the dismantling process, things will quieten down for a couple of weeks. But then in January it’s back to the drawing board as the ideas and innovation start again to make sure that Christmas 2010 will once again turn fantasy into reality. . .
