It's Norfolk and good!
I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.

That really is creepy, it is no wonder the parents were not impressed. :o The Pentecostal church I attended as a kid had a Santa with a really scary mask, which frightened the daylights out of me when I was two! After that I insisted my parents brought my Christmas stocking up to my bedroom as I was scared of Santa. It was a relief to discover at the age of 8  he didn't actually exist.

The whole idea of someone coming in to the house who has been snooping on you all year and making lists about it  is all a bit creepy
