I hope he feels well enough to come back next year, but the poor old chap has had such harsh treatment from Poppy the dog, that he's considering a career change. Does he remind you of Uncle Albert from 'Only Fools and Horses'?
He's lost his hat and already had the required haircut and I think he's going for a life of meditation.
.
On a more serious note, on Totalfeckineejit's blog he suggested we each light a candle at noon today, to remember someone special no longer with us, or to give thanks or make a dedication of some kind.
I lit my candle for anyone who feels that they have insurmountable problems. My wish is that they will find the courage and strength to deal with them and find a solution, and that maybe fate will step in and give them a helping hand.

It's lovely to see your candle lit. Mine was for those who have moved on.
I'm going to a funeral on Monday for a friend who died a few days ago of breast cancer in her sixty first year.
It's all so sad. I thought of her and the candle helped keep my sense of her spirit alive.
What a lovely idea, wish I had read your post yesterday. I think I shall still light a candle for someone though.
Love

Well said, Heather. Happy New Year.
He certainly does look like Uncle Albert.
The candle idea is an excellent one.
Oh poor Santa - do hope he recovers in time for next year! Hope your cold is on the way out too - a very Happy Healthy and Creative New Year Heather.
What a lovely idea for TFE's candle theme, Heather. I'll join with you in wishing courage and strength for them too.
I think the desperation of poor santas bewilderment is graphically portrayed by those poor eyes of his.Mine go like that sometimes.
Beautiful candle and dedication, Heather.
Oh, and Happy New Year! (Have I said that already?
Poor old Santa, but I bet Poppy had a good time while she was trying to de'cap'itate him. *LOL*
What a wonderful idea lighting a candle is (and that's terrible English)!! I have read this too late to participate.
Poor Santa does look ready for the monastary! And he does look like Uncle Albert too! As you saw from my blog, nothing lasts long in Buster's jaws.
Love and ~hugs~, keep warm,
