14.What creatures may we ask to stroke in the stable? (2,3,5) 12.What wouldn't they let poor Rudolph join in?(3,8,5) I've got 'Any Reindeer Games' as the answers go on a crossword style grid this gives me S as the start of 13.What should you not do when Santa Clause comes to town?(5,4,3) & I can't get any of the lyrics to fit.Finally 28.From which country did the Christmas chooks come from?(6) Many thanks for any help.

28. Turkey (or is that too obvious?)

13 "better not cry" if letter count is wrong.

[bhg481]

12 - your "any" is better than my "the".

[elliemay1]

13 Shout nor cry, if letter count wrong

[elliemay1]

^ forget mine!

14 //May we stroke the creatures there,
oxen or sheep?// (How Far Is It to Bethlehem?)
If letter count wrong

[elliemay1]

14 ox and sheep?? (to fit the letter count)

[elliemay1]

From Barry Manilow lyrics:
//So you better not pout
Better not shout
Better not cry
Better not sigh
Tellin' you why
Santa Claus is coming...//
So 'shout, pout, cry' would fit if it has to begin with S
