In the Netherlands, Black Peter is Santa's helper who judges which children were bad during the year. Children are told that Black Peter will enter the house through the chimney and leave a bundle of sticks or salt in their shoes instead of candy if they have been bad. Extremely bad children, they are told, will be put into Black Peter's gunny bag and carried off.
I will have to put up with this greasepaint on Friday & Saterday.
I need the money.
