Santa Claus 'doesn't drink the sherry'
A man – subsequently found to be celebrity philanthropist Santa Claus – was found to be in charge of a sleigh, and wa asked to perform a breath test.
A police spokesman said: “Fortunately for the children of West Lothian, Santa was able to provide a negative breath test - so thanks very much, mums and dads, for the snifters of sherry you provide, but he knows that no alcohol when you’re driving is the best plan!
