It's getting to that time of year again where we have to sit down and ask ourselves, "Have I behaved well this year?" - for we know that if we haven't, Santa won't be bringing us any presents on Christmas Eve.


And we all know that on his busiest night of the year, Santa doesn't want to have to waste time delivering presents to houses where the occupants have spent more time being naughty than good.

But before the big night, you'll have a chance to meet the great man himself.

This year, Selfridges department store on Oxford Street will be hosting Father Christmas at its special Winter Wonderland inside the store.

He'll be there from 19th November right up until Christmas Eve, after which he'll be speeding off into the night to deliver presents, pulled by his trusty red-nosed reindeers.

The cost of meeting Santa is £3 for children (2 to 12 years) and £7 for adults. This covers the cost of all the mince pies and sherry that he consumes while staying at the Winter Wonderland.

But don't worry, it's non-alcoholic sherry, so he won't be three sheets to the wind when you get to meet him.

Every child visiting Santa in Selfridges is promised a free gift and will also have their experience recorded by a professional photographer.

Visitors will have a unique chance to meet Santa's elves and post a Christmas letter to Santa's home address in the North Pole.

The overall visit to the Winter Wonderland, located on the lower ground floor, will last around 30 minutes, which includes meeting the big man himself.

As you might expect, the Winter Wonderland tends to get busy, so you might have to wait in line for a while. The elves try to ensure your wait is, at the very most, 30 minutes, though of course they'll do their best to make it much shorter.
