Re: Accringtons Christmas Tree

It looks a right bedraggled owd thing in daylight, was it in Dingleland last year? Any chance of one of you locals getting a nice shot of the crib at night. Maybe an Accyweb candal lit vigil would be a good idea (mulled wine optional).
Just ignore me, we are getting a skating rink up here in Morecambe and the locals here are still moaning, some people are never satisfied.

Merry Christmas from Morecambe

The wise men all moved to Canada where there is no shortage of fine trees growing wild.

By the way, hon, where in Clayton is that tree?

(oh, and did you ever consider vandals on stilts?)
