To others, he is Father Christmas. But if the kids in these photos are anything to go by many also know him as the Harbinger of Doom. More than 30,000 children will visit the big red man at David Jones' Magic Cave this year, with many happy to hand over their big list of requested pressies, while others cling to Mum or Dad in abject terror. This year David Jones has introduced a virtual line-up, whereby parents have been able to skip the wait to see Santa and shop instead. People have been able to leave their mobile number with staff who then text when it is that person's turn to see Santa. Parents are able to shop or run errands instead of standing in line. A spokeswoman for David Jones said the wait to see Father Christmas had generally been one to two hours. She said the virtual line-up had been well receivedand would likely continue next year.
