Inside Santa's workshop

Every letter is written for one knobhead

No two letters are the same. Santa brings up the things that matter: their town, their worst habits, the stupid thing they did this year and how everyone has frankly had enough.

  • Names and shames them, town and all
  • Brings up the thing they hoped you'd forgotten
  • Swears exactly as much as you want him to
  • Signed by Santa, who is fuming

Inside Santa's workshop

Every letter is written for one child

No two letters are the same. Father Christmas mentions the things that matter to them: their hobbies, their town, something they're proud of this year and the present they're hoping for.

  • Mentions their town or village by name
  • Praises something they've done well this year
  • Talks about the present they've asked for
  • Signed by Father Christmas, or Santa if you prefer

No two letters the same

He knows about the 2am voicemail and the kebab in the car

Every letter is written for one person, using the dirt you give us. It reads like Santa has been watching them all year, and frankly he's appalled.

  • Their town, named and shamed
  • The stupid thing they did this year
  • Their worst habit, in detail
  • A P.S. from Santa. It isn't nice.

Dear Dave,
Rudolph tells me you still haven't paid Gaz back for the taxi. Twelve months, Dave. Twelve. Mrs Claus says you're a lovely lad. Mrs Claus is wrong.Santa

Every letter is a surprise. Not a nice one.

It looks like the loveliest thing on the doormat this Christmas. Then they start reading, and Santa starts on the bins, the driving and the karaoke.

  • Their name, their town and their worst habits
  • As rude as you want: cheeky, rude or filthy
  • Ready-written, or written fresh by AI

Incident report

Every complaint is investigated. Thoroughly. And then they get a letter.

Tell the department what they've done. Santa reviews the evidence, reaches the obvious verdict and writes to them personally, by name, with full details of the offence.

OFFICIAL FINDINGRe: Dave, of Wigan. Following a full investigation into the taxi money, the department finds that Dave is, and remains, a bellend. No further action. Merry Christmas.Santa giving the finger
Overheard at the bar

Santa's had a few, and he's got opinions

Tell him who's been naughty and he'll tell them exactly what he thinks: their name, their town, and every daft thing they did this year. Cheeky, rude or absolutely filthy. Your call.

Written for one child

Every letter is different, because every child is

Father Christmas mentions their town, praises something they've done this year and talks about the present on their list. You can add a PS of your own, too.
