Kidnapping and assault

So one of my decorative chocolate Santas went missing this morning, and one of the others had clearly had his costume ripped in an attack by unknown assailants.

You can't trust anyone any more.

Very emotional start to the day. Totally exhausting day at work. Chaired my last charity board meeting tonight (two years after taking over as "interim chair" for "just a few weeks"). Big relief. We went for pasta, prosecco and chocolate pud afterwards. Came home to some good news. Life really is too much.

The Santa was returned during the day. But we don't know how he was treated. I suspect alien abduction and experiments were involved ...
