On the last evening of the old year we waited until it had just got dark and the town had emptied of shoppers before taking a stroll to enjoy the festive lights. This has always been one of my favourite parts of the whole season...I find the street lights quite mesmerising. There is an annual competition for the local children to design a decoration and the winners have their handiwork put on show for all to enjoy. Their innocence captures the spirit of the season for me. So here for my final mention of Christmas some images that capture the atmosphere and a couple of lairy angels belting out some carols in one of the advent windows for good measure👼👼
The life and adventures of a mildly dotty old bird.
