Dear St. Nicholas (St. Nicholas)
12/06/2018
I know that you have different names depending on the area, e.g. St. Niklas or Sinterklaas, also Nikolo. It is therefore not easy to address you by the correct name. Nevertheless, I will do so today, because I have a suggestion to make:
For centuries, you have been coming to the children around December 6 as Samichlaus (that's what they call you in Switzerland) with your donkey and "Schmutzli", your helper. But wouldn't it be time to switch to a sleeker and more efficient means of transportation?
A red Lancia Stratos seems to be just right for you. It has proven itself on different terrains (asphalt, gravel, snow, ice) and as a multiple world rally champion, it also has the appropriate palmares. What's more, it offers space for two people, i.e. you and a dirty one, and, would you believe it, it even has storage compartments inside and a trunk. Since today's children hardly expect big presents anymore, but would rather have a Spotify subscription or perhaps a flat iPhone, the almost 100 liters of storage space behind the mid-engine are easily sufficient. And the kids are sure to be impressed when you pull up in the Stratos like Sandro Munari at the Monte Carlo Rally ...
Well, it was just a suggestion ...
