Santa's Devon Cream Tea on Exmoor

Santa loved a camping trip,

Off to Devon he did skip...

When Christmas was done and all the presents were gone.....

Santa went on holiday with everyone....

Mrs C had been baking scones -

She packed a dozen and jam in tons....

They decided to picnic at the top of a cliff -

Watching the waves was Heavenly after a busy Christmas shift....

In a cafe, they settled in front of the fire,

About the menu, they started to enquire....

They ordered a pot of tea for two,

And a cream scone for me and you...

What made Santa's holiday so delightful

Was watching the gulls, though they were quite frightful ! They pecked up the crumbs from off the floor ...Santa decided to order at least two more !

Whether jam underneath, or on top...

Santa's munching didn't stop !

Another teacake - toasted with butter...."Bring me some quiche, as well", he did mutter !

They left a tip when they paid the bill...

Carried on their exciting trip - down an Exmoor hill....

Through Exmoor, they headed East...

Hoping not to meet the beast !

They heard a roar loud in the night...

A purring sound that gave them a fright!

They hid behind a very large rock...

Hoping the smell of cream scones wouldn't make them flock....along the ponies, who also loved scones...mince pies, strawberry tarts and sticky buns !
