What is Santa up to in October?

[Sanity Clause]

The elves are in a great hurry producing all the sweet and toys and stuffing them in the sacks. The Flight Department is mapping out the flight plan so as to avoid violent thunderstorms hailstorms and hurricanes, and so as to avoid fighter planes, gun batteries and RPGs too. The riendeer are being excersised more often, the prep and landing teams are preparing themselves for action, and Santa is practising climbing down chimneys.

Santa is spending an inordinate amount of time stopping hijinx like this...

Things are crazy at the north pole. The elves in the workshop and wrapping departments have been working 18 hour shifts to try and catch back up after the outbreak of snowpox. They have gained a week but they are still 3 weeks behind. The kitchen staff has finished the gummy candy and is now concentrating on feeding all of the elves who are working. They will have to shift over to making gingerbread houses pretty soon though. The stables started the reindeer on a new high calorie diet. With all of the flying the are doing in practice they are burning calories at an unprecedented rate. Santa is helping out in the workshop as much as he can. He has also been traveling a lot to check on his supply depots across the world. He wants to make sure that everything is in perfect condition before the season gets here. Mrs. Claus has been devoting her extra time to helping the wrapping department. She says that Santa might be able to build a better toy than her but he's never tied a bow in his life. So things are still behind but they are starting to slowly catch back up.

I think Santa's been busy buying pumpkins to carve...

Production is now running at 100% 24 hours a day most elves are having to pull double shifts, but they enjoy it really.

Santa is checking the long range weather reports to see if there could be any unusual weather, so far nothing out of the ordinary, all though some reports could see some unusual snow falls in Great Britain, the Weather elves are keeping a close eye on Northern Europe's weather.
