What does the rest of the world actually do at Christmas? Oren the Moose and Skip the Reindeer should know this: the two of them are in charge of the Christmas present delivery service Xmas Xpress at the North Pole. Around the clock they await the call from Father Christmas or one of his nternational colleagues, for Christmas is not always Christmas - all over the world people celebrate differently. Right now business is not doing so well, for almost every assignment ends in utter chaos.
