and if Air Traffic Control ask your Chief Pilot – ‘Do you hear what I hear?’ as Santa urges:
‘On Dasher!, On Vixen!, On Dancer!, Prancer!, Comet!, Cupid! and Blitzen! [who incidentally are not professional ballroom dancers on Strictly Come Dancing], On Donner! [nothing to do with kebabs kids], – On Rudolf! – Ho!, – HO!! – HO!!! … ‘,
