Thanks Mira ..... I enjoy the puzzles you choose for me. I've not finished that bamboo one yet .... but I will! I'm sure Santa was still there quite late last year. I love the way he's illuminated.

Yes, is lovely ... I've taken a screengrab and will make into another jigsaw for you. :) Maybe they're leaving Santa up until after Eastern Orthodox Christmas is over ... today (January 8th) is their Christmas Day.
