Apology as Santa letter returned to senders address

An Post has apologised after a three-year old girl’s letter to Santa was sent back to her — nearly a month after she had posted it to Lapland.

Dublin publican Alan Campbell said he was unhappy with how An Post responded to his complaint after his eight-year-old daughter found her little sister’s Santa letter when she came down the stairs a fortnight ago.

The father of three said his children had all posted separate Santa letters on December 16 last, but that the return of one of the letters prompted questions from his eight-year-old.
