I am very excited about this book because it combines two things I love: Christmas and fantasy.

@strongpotions_@OctopusEnergy I spent two years contacting them to let them know my meter was crossed with neighbours and nothing was done until I asked to switch to a smart meter. Engineer came out and said “the meter is crossed” yeah I know!!!! Took another year to sort it properly
