Happy Nikolaus!

Today is here in Germany Nikolaus day. This means, that a person in Saint Nicholas costume visits children. There are presents, of course, but first after a very severe examination of the wrongs and rights of the previous year. To this end, Nikolaus has an enormous book, where everything is written down. (No wonder that Germans feel always that Big Brother is watching them!)

My question to the Bangers: What do you think is written about you in that book?

Santa looked shocked and he couldn’t believe what he  just had heard. Finally, the boy on his lap said: “Don’t look at me like that. You told me, I can ask for whatever I want”.

Happy Nikolaus!

  1. After careful thought, I would say I have a zero balance. I haven't been bad (in a classic sense) but then again, I haven't been very good.

    I have been bad in a good way, but I am missing out on being good in a bad way.

    So while I'm not going to be switched, I don't expect anything from St. Nicholas this year.
