A double-decker bus has been converted into an unusual Santa's grotto.

The bus, part of an exhibition at the Oxford Bus Museum, in Long Hanborough station yard, near Bladon, will be manned by Santa, museum director John Bayliss.

Colin Judge, the museum secretary, said: "We're trying to make it a family day out. We've got mince pies and sausage rolls and there is a children's activity centre near the bus."

Santa will be at the museum from 10.30am to 4.30pm on December 14 and December 15, and again the following Sunday.

The museum will also be open on New Year's Day when free bus rides will be available.
