In Dublin anyway...

Santy if you're not posh.
Santa if you think you live in an American sitcom, or posh.

That was always my understanding.

Similar to the Great Mam V Mum (V Mom for the real freaks) war that's been raging on boards since its conception.
I'm a Santy Mam knacker btw.

Well here in Dublin it was always Santy, but then US and UK tv told all the kids to talk with a question at the end of their sentences, and to say Santa too. I am sad about that.

Anyway was great to see the clip of the little Cork lad on the radio and it was Santy all the way.

FTW.

That's brilliant.

Us culchies love the way northside Dubliners speak.

What I'd like to know is how did his costume end up in this red and white colour? You hear this story that it was a soft drink company what gave it to him, but did it though? That could well be a modern corporate company surplanting its own myth on a already established ancient one. I think the red and white colour comes from the 'Amanita muscaria' (The holy mushroom) This is a hallucinatory 'magic' mushroom, its tip is red with white dots, looks like the ones in the fairytales, cartoons and the Mario Brothers computer games. The reindeers in the artic circle gobble them when they see a patch of them growing underneath evergreen pine trees in the wild. Nordic Shaman tribesmen would eat them and describe the reindeers flying. Maybe thats what the reindeers see too. Even Insects will take bites off these mushrooms and collapse onto the ground in a semi comatose warped state for 15 minutes, get back up and take more bites, thats Christmas in a nutshell right there

T'was Santa to many Dublin folk a long time before TV was invented.

Maybe not down Coddle Terrace way.

Nah, Gaeilgeoirs are well in with him, no need for formality.

Little known fact, as well as getting extra points in the Leaving, they also get 10% more presents from Santy. Fact!
