    There was a question in the first sentence. Brady’s bad punctuation seems to be catching and I didn’t insert a question mark. As it it has in your last sentence with your misplaced comma.

    I know, that would be a missing apostrophe, The missing comma was after well.

    Wow, that’s authentic, must go back months. Never heard of any kids when we were young awaiting the arrival of Mrs Christmas? Did you tell your kids some female, possibly black, would be delivering their presents?

    Have you seen the advert?

    At the start a WHITE Father Christmas is sleeping in a chair by the fire. So his wife goes about sorting a few things.

    Are you really objecting to a mythical character being portrayed as have a mixed race marriage FFS <laugh><laugh><laugh><laugh><laugh>

    Can’t have seen it, or has chosen to deliberately misinterpret it.
    The woman in the advert has no role in delivering presents

    My only objection is the box ticking that goes on regarding these things. Any black Mrs Christmases featuring in Sweden or the rest of Scandinavia. Black actors and actresses inserted in to situations where there were none, like as in Bridgerton? A black Ragnar Lodbrok perhaps? Or a black female playing Erica the Red, intrepid Viking explorer?

    The fact I have been married for over 50 years shows I like women. Whereas your only indication of doing so is that you live with your mum.

    Our present are delivered by a Jultomten so it's not even human let alone male, female, or a person of colour.

    Of course we have "colour blind" casting in historical productions just like the UK does.
