Ho ho ho! A whole bunch of us will be dressing up as Santa and rampaging through the mean streets of Pinner on 10 December, in aid of St Luke's hospice.

Please give generously. It'll be more christmassy than watching 'Home Alone' in front of a log fire whilst sipping mulled wine and listening to the Pogues and Kirsty MacColl.

And we can post some photos of dogs dressed up as Santa if you like.
