    Father Christmas is hard at work, flying around the world delivering presents to good girls and boys all over the world. Wait - you have been good, right?


    Santa's helpers have finished getting the presents ready for delivery. The reindeer have been well rested, and all their pre-flight checks have been completed. Santa is wearing his favourite red suit, and is ready to eat thousands of mince pies and cookies. Now he just needs to deliver the presents.



    Thanks to the wonders of modern technology you can track the current position of Santa and his trusty reindeer wherever they are on Christmas Eve. Just head on over to NORAD Tracks Santa.

    You can 'track him' in 3d using Google Earth. He dosen't seem to be stopping at any houses though.

    Oh that's not the site. That's the US government browsing through your files.


    In fairness to them, it is a good bit of fun.

    BREAKING NEWS:
    Santa Shows Love For North Korea Despite Conflict With South Korea

    Even though there's a serious conflict between North Korea and South Korea and threats of nuclear war from the North, Santa Claus took the high road and visited the North Korean capital Pyongyang.

    In what has become the new hotbed of the world, it would stand to reason that Santa would be scared off by visiting this region - let alone Pyongyang, which is the capital of a nation seeking to nuke South Korea and even America if if comes down to it.

    The word is that Santa made it out the capital fairly smoothly despite North Korea's clandestine nature. They normally don't allow anyone to cross their borders, but in this case they treated Santa Claus much like they would Bill Clinton and allowed him to do his thing.
