Ho! Ho! Ho!

Meteorologists might predict a snow-free Christmas in southern Finland, but that's not the case up north!

As Finnish public broadcaster YLE reports, once again Santa Claus has taken off from his headquarters in Korvatunturi, Lapland, to deliver a happy Christmas to all, and presents to all boys and girls who have been nice for the past twelve months.

According to YLE, who call themselves Santa's official TV station, his sleigh, now made from the most advanced technology, cannot be deterred by GPS spoofing, jamming or any malicious AI-assisted software.

So far all who've been good for goodness sake, you better not cry as Santa can cross seas, oceans and mountains with no interference to his mission of true peace, love and understanding.
