In a small town house a child awakes from his dream feeling too tired and sleepy unwilling to get up.
His mother draws the blinds to let the sun shine in.
He wipes his eyes and squints.

Child: 'Mum, is it Christmas already?

Mother: 'No dear. Why?'

Child: 'Coz I want Santa Claus to buy me a present. Like a tablet.'

Mother chuckles and rubs his head.

'We have quite a few more sleeps to go before Christmas.'

The child sighs.

'Then could you pass my message in advance so he does not forget?'

Ho! Ho! Ho!

It's Christmas in July.
