Landing an interview with the world’s most popular man in his busiest month is not easy. Father Christmas kindly gave up a few minutes of his time to chat in his grotto at Greenmeadow Community Farm.
Click this link or the box below to listen to a two minute audioboo interview. He talks about the most popular requests from children in Cwmbran as well as a warning to be on your best behaviour if you want him to visit.
