    Santa, nothing but a damn commie. Better dead than red.

    I have come across numerous letters that have been sent to Santa clause and the children do not provide a return address, I would say roughly a 1/4 of them, so it's obviously not possible to send a reply.

    Are these the letters?

    Exactly I would think it was obvious to put address on it.

    Those new letters are lovely. I cannot fully remember the ones I got but they must have been similar

    Surely The North Pole would come under international rates though, alot more than 55c.

    My dad used to write us all personalised letters from Santy, which he would conveniently find by the front door on Christmas morning :D I could never understand how Santy knew just so much about us all :D

    I still remember getting one of these letters back from santa when i was little. We used to do the whole putting it up the chimney thng but one year I had started to have my doubts. My ma got me to post the letter myself and I got the reply back, Thought it was the most amazing thing ever. Kept me believing for a little while longer.

    You know the way kids always change their minds about what presents they want ?

    Get them to write it n a letter to Santa.

    "The letter's gone now, you can't change your mind"

    I dunno about Skynet. I usually follow the NORAD one and they've done it since the beginning so I doubt they'd stop this year.
    scary when you think that a little girl was on the hot line

    suppose she asked for a game of Global Thermonuclear Warfare ?

    It seems obvious but did your kids put their address on the letter ?

    Otherwise how would Santa reply.

    If not try a 2nd letter this time with your address if they want a Santa reply

    It is obvious! And yes, they were 2&4 so I had to write the letters on their behalf, so I put a return address on the letters themselves in the expectation that they would get a reply.... And I put stamps on the envelope too.

    And there are return addresses and stamps on this years envelopes, just like we are asked.
