Things I like
Prancer-ilious, Vixen, Bon Jovial, Blitzen and Donner Tella; grooming their shiny coats, buffing their reindeer-harnesses, waxing their antlers, tinkering with their bells, giving them them hooficures, administering Alcheseltze (those reindeer are party animals!)

Things I don’t like
When the sleigh sat-nav malfunctions and we have to revert to maps. Muddy hooves, tatty coats, mucking out reindeer stables, (although it’s a little known fact that reindeer manure is the main ingredient in hair dye). Donner’s temper when her false tan goes streaky, and the volume of the music coming from Blitzen’s stable.

My friends say I am
The Linda McCartney of the North Pole – I love all animals, but especially the four legged, red-nosed variety.

If I wasn’t at the North Pole I would be
Working at The Royal Mews, Buckingham Palace or for the Canadian Mounties.

My secret talent is
Making the reindeers go super-fast – I find insentivising them is the best way to get maximum results.
