DR LEGGS’ report on SANTA CLAUS.

DR LEGGS’ report on SANTA CLAUS.

Hello, I am Dr Leggs, the resident psychiatrist of Sunset Cove. Many interesting people come to see me about their problems (and you can sometimes see me in Atlantis High!). Each week I’m profiling different Sunset Covers – and this week is the man himself, Santa Claus!

Name:Santa Claus aka Father Christmas, Saint Nicolas, Pere Noel, Sinta Klass, and many others.
Age: Absolutely no way of knowing!
Status:

Bringer of joy to good boys and girls at Christmas time. Essentially the spirit of Christmas.

Appearance:A red suit with white fur trim and jingle bell buttons, blabk boots, a beautifully kept moustache and white beard and very sparkly eyes.
Past History:Santa Claus is said to have been around for quite some time. He was first known as Saint Nicolas but decided to change hos name and his home when he couldn’t go out to the shops without being mobbed. Santa keeps a low profile nowadays and sends his lookalike elves out to deal with the public.
Motives:Santa loves to give presents! Some say that this is because he never received gifts from his parents in his own childhood and so he vowed to bring happiness to the children of the world forever. He thinks it’s great to see the looks of joy on their faces.
Influences:Mr.Claus is influenced by his wife, Mrs.Claus and by his team of reindeer, who all have very strong personalities and are good judges of character. The Tooth Fairy and Easter Bunny are close friends and advisors of Santa and it would be fair to say that they all influence each other.
Strengths: This guy is immortal and has the ability to stay up all night on Christmas Eve as well as having magical, mystical and psychic powers. Santa also wins the North Pole Iron Man contest every year without fail, easily beating the elves, reindeer and arctic folk.
Weaknesses: Santa has a love of cookies and milk and has been known to overindulge on Christmas Eve. He loves to fly and often disappears on long jaunts around the world, leaving Mrs.Claus in a frenzy over the burnt dinner.
Catchphrases: “Ho Ho Ho!” and “What would you like for Christmas?” and “Have you been good this year?” and “A very Merry Christmas!”
Secrets:.Santa has been in therapy for a while now. He is upset that some people do not believe that he is real. However, he is in a dilemma because he doesn’t feel that he should have to prove himself and he certainly doesn’t want to walk the streets and get mobbed by children again. The jolly old guy is in a bad way but has cheered up recently because he looks forward to Christmas so much.
Rumours:

Some of the elves from Toyland have been whispering that Santa is thinking about making a Christmas Day speech, much like the Queen of England does. He might tell the world how bad he feels at not being believed in or he might talk of his possible retirement. The elves are fighting over who could take his place should he retire and Santa’s good friend, Mr.Fluffy Muffin has expressed interest in the job as the Easter Bunny has no such retirement plans. Santa might well move in to the retirement villa in Sunset Cove, not because he likes the climate (it’s too hot and he would need to refrigerate his villa) but because he likes the simplicity of the people. Lew Siffer has been telling everybody of how Santa has been trying out the chimneys of different villas in the Cove for size during the last few weeks.

DR LEGGS’ report on Frosty the Snowman.

DR LEGGS’ report on Frosty the Snowman.

Hello, I am Dr Leggs, the resident psychiatrist of Sunset Cove. Many interesting people come to see me about their problems (and you can sometimes see me in Atlantis High!). E
ach week I’m profiling different Sunset Covers – and this week is the star of Christmas, Frosty the Snowman.

Name:Frosty the Snowman.
Age: Questionable, but most likely 60 years old or so.
Status:

Snowman and friend of Santa Claus.

Appearance:Think snow, think ice, think a carrot nose and a scarf, a pipe and a bowler hat.
Past History:Frosty has been around for years. He arrives every time the snow falls in Sunset Cove which isn’t often. Well, Frosty actually arrives every Christmas time, spends some time chilling out at the beach and buys some new scarves at his favourite shop in the Mall.
Motives:Frosty loves the way that the residents of Sunset Cove decorate their houses and he just wants to be a part of the Atlantis vibe. Plus he loves the attention he gets from all the ladies and he has a particular soft spot for Dorothy.
Influences:Frosty is influenced by the babes at the beach, the lady who owns the scarf shop and by Dorothy. He is a great friend of Grandpa and they spend hours talking of how Christmas used to be.
Strengths: This guy is very strong. He resists the power of the sun and defies all scientific know how by not melting. He is a great dancer and singer. A hit at all Christmas parties.
Weaknesses: Frosty has a weakness for new scarves and beautiful women. He is also very fond of eggnog.
Catchphrases: “Hey, I know Santa!” and “Love me love my scarf” and “Snowmen are for life, not just for Christmas”
Secrets:.Frosty is in therapy over the loss of his parents last Christmas. He had finally convinced them to come to Sunset Cove and to enjoy some time at the beach. He thought that because he could ellude the power of Mr.Sun that his parents would also be safe. However when he came back from a trip to the ice cream van he found that his parents had melted.
Rumours:

Frosty is thinking of becoming a cabaret star. He loves to sing and is often compared to Frank Sinatra. Rumour has it that he has been offered a spot at the Atlantas Hotel in Vegas.

DR LEGGS’ report on GRAMPA GORDON (MARTYN SANDERSON).

DR LEGGS’ report on GRAMPA GORDON (MARTYN SANDERSON).

Hello, I am Dr Leggs, the resident psychiatrist of Sunset Cove. Many interesting people come to see me about their problems (and you can sometimes see me in Atlantis High!). Each week I’m profiling different Sunset Covers – and this week is the world’s most wacky Grandfather – Grampa.

Name:Grampa Gordon (Dorothy calls him Dad – but nobody knows him by any other name).
Age: Physically a sixty-something Grampa – mentally, an 18 year old
Status:

Eccentric knitting-loving Grampa to Giles Gordon

Appearance:Grampa always seems to wear a sleeve-less sweater and red baseball cap (sometimes back to front). He usually carries knitting kneedles and wool
Past History:Unknown. One of the mysteries of the universe. Grampa never talks about his past or what he did for an occupation or other exploits when he was younger. Grampa is an enigma shrouded in a misty mystery.
Motives:Grampa has two main motives – one, to keep his mysterious past a secret unknown to anyone except himself and two: to look after his family members. Grampa loves his daughter, Dorothy (whom he calls “Dennis”) and grandson, Giles. But will these two motives ever clash – and if so, what happens then?
Influences:Television. Grampa adores it. His lifelong ambition has been to be on TV and he has applied to over 487 quiz shows. He narrowly missed out on the TV quizshow “10 questions about wool” because it was axed due to low ratings (only 6 people watched it – 5 of them were family members of the makers of the show). His other influence is his family. And his mysterious past…
Strengths: Knitting. Grampa is an amazing knitter. He once knit a motorbike out of barbed wire. He is also very determined and will never give up when facing the odds – unless the odds are too big…
Weaknesses: Knitting. Grampa loves knitting so much it is a distraction for him at times. Likewise television – he sits for hours and hours glued to the TV (in fact, he once glued himself to the TV and firemen had to cut him free. He hoped at the time he might make it on the local news TV due to this mishap and fulfil his ambition to appear on TV).
Catchphrases: “Dennis!” (to Dorothy), “I’m trying to watch TV” or “Don’t ask questions!” (when asked about his past), and “Giles Gordon is an alien!”
Secrets:This Grampa is a walking secret – he is secrecy in motion. He has more secrets than the secret service. What are his secrets? Sorry – that’s a secret…
Rumours:

Rumour has it that Grampa’s daughter, Dorothy, is not really his natural daughter. Another rumour is that Grampa’s grandson, Giles, is really an alien. I find it hard to believe these rumours though there may be truth to the rumour that Grampa once knitted a scraf that was so long it went from the Earth to planet Neptune, where a group of aliens used it to wrap around their long green necks to keep warm (after all, it is cold in space so this is a plausible rumour)…

DR LEGGS’ report on Cupid

DR LEGGS’ report on Cupid

Hello, I am Dr Leggs, the resident psychiatrist of Sunset Cove. Many interesting people come to see me about their problems (and you can sometimes see me in Atlantis High!). Each week I’m profiling different Sunset Covers – and this week is the star of being romantic, Cupid.

Name:Cupid
Age: Thousands of years old – although he claims to be 16 because his complexion is so soft. He uses Oil of Ulag (a cherub moisturiser)
Status:

Win’s the hearts of everyone with his trusty bow and arrow. Nearly everyone meets cupid at some time in their life.

Appearance:Cute little cherub that flits around with his bow and arrow giving love to anyone and everyone.
Past History:Cupid has been around for many years. He has changed the hearts of many people including some very famous people, and even his own heart. He was once in love with another cherub named Supid but one day he found she had been two timing him with Zupid and his heart was broken. Since he couldn’t find happiness himself he decided to use his bow and arrow to bring happiness and love to others. “Supid Cupid stop picking on me!”
Motives:Cupid just wants to give love to everyone! But is hasn’t always worked! Henry VIII was one for Cupids books. He had so many wives! Cupid couldn’t keep up!
Influences:Cupid is influenced by Venus the God of love. They’ve shared some special times together and Cupid has often sought advice from Venus.
Strengths: Cupids strength is his aim. He doesn’t often miss when it comes to firing his arrow at the right person.
Weaknesses: Cupid is often pushing love on people before it’s ready. Some people think they’re in love when they are not. But Cupid knows most of the time and doesn’t often get it wrong.
Catchphrases: “She loves me, she loves me not” – “aim, ready…fire!” “Roses are red, violets are blue…”
Secrets:.Cupid is secretly still looking for love himself. He has been on a few blind dates but they’ve never worked out because he’s not been able to see who he’s dating.
Rumours:

Apparently he’s planning to make a machine that can fire thousands of arrows at once because he wants everyone to be in love and he just can’t keep up with his one little bow and arrow.

I’ve also heard that Cupid has a thing for me! Dr Leggs and Cupid now that could be interesting…

DR LEGGS’ report on SPOOK

DR LEGGS’ report on SPOOK

Hello, I am Dr Leggs, the resident psychiatrist of Sunset Cove. Many interesting people come to see me about their problems (and you can sometimes see me in Atlantis High!). This week I’m profiling the infamous “Spook” of Sunset Cove.

Name:Spook
Age: He doesn’t age but has been around for hundreds of years
Status:

The most famous ghost in Sunset Cove

Appearance:Very spooky. Mostly dressed in white, he shivers and shakes and moans. Sometimes he takes on identities other than himself – if you look too far into his eyes you might see yourself!
Past History:Spook has lived on Haunted Hill for hundreds of years. No one knows the real story of why he is there but legend has it that there was once a whole family of ghosts living in the mansion on the hill but as they made peace with their death they vanished… Only Spook is left.
Motives:Spook is actually a very nice ghost. He is good friends with Fluffy Muffin as are most super natural things in Sunset Cove.
Influences:Spook is strongly influenced by anyone that lives in the mansion. The house is sold fairly often as no one likes to live there for long – although they like the house and the magnificent views there’s something that’s not quite right about the whole place. But when a family is there Spook is like a child. He wails and moans all night and gets so excited at being able to do ghosty things.
Strengths: Spook has an amazing vocal range. He can hit octaves you’ve never even heard of. His wailing and moaning is famous in Sunset County. But he’s such a modest ghost that he’d never admit he was great.
Weaknesses: Shyness is Spook’s weakness. He doesn’t like to be seen very often and definitely likes to keep a low profile. He gets all embarassed and hides if anyone tries to talk to him. The only time he’s loud and scary is when he’s at his mansion and doing his ghosty thing.
Catchphrases: “Whooooooooooooooooooooooooo”
Secrets:Legend has it that Spook is actually the ghost of little Johnny Bignet. Johnny and his family lived in Sunset Cove in the 1810’s and mysteriously disappeared on the eve of Halloween
Rumours:

Rumours are that the mansion on the hill might be demolished to make way for some new apartments. Spook and Fluffy Muffin have a plan in place if it ever looks like this will happen. Spook will stop being nice to anyone that lives in the house and will take drastic moves to keep his home.
