Father Christmas has arrived at Dobbies

by Andrew Norton on November 25, 2011

Father Christmas arrived in spectacular fashion at Dobbies last weekend.

Crowds of children and parents greeted Santa and his entourage at Dobbies garden centres across the U.K.

At Dobbies Aberdeen, Santa arrived in a horse drawn carriage accompanied by little helpers, pipers and very tall elves.

Maria Robertson took her son along and said “my wee boy was a bit overawed by it all but it was well worth a visit, thank you!”.

Here are some festive photos from the celebrations at Dobbies Aberdeen:
