Here’s hoping that there are no drones about.
After he set off from the North Pole earlier this afternoon, we can now chart Santa’s whereabouts as he embarks on the busiest day of his year.
As is the norm, we’re delighted to say that Santa has been given the all-clear to enter Irish air space and that he has plenty of presents for all those boys and girls that have been nice throughout the year.
Minister for Transport Shane Ross has released a statement which reads: “Santa and Mrs Claus, associated reindeer and a very, very large sleigh have been granted permission to enter Irish air space from 5pm this evening.”
Minister Ross added: “Santa’s sleigh has been checked for air worthiness and is fully approved for round-the-world travel. All permits and insurance credentials are in order.”
We’ve also learned that “Mrs Claus will be accompanying Santa in her role as chief navigator” and said she has “advised that milk, cookies and carrots are the best items for children to leave out before they go to bed.”
This being said, there are still a few hours before Christmas Day so everyone better be on their best behaviour.
