Sadley its cheaper the better as far as the councils concerned.
Yet I bet they have one hell of a Christmas shindig for themselves though. ![Mad](http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/images/accysmilies/mad.gif)

I agree. Seeing as we have the reporters from the newspapers lurking and reading the site, maybe you could start an eye catching thread for them to go and investigate where the council have hidden it chav.
Maybe it's been sold to pay for that poor excuse of a Christmas tree. ![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)

Re: accy xmas tree
They've probably decided not to put up the nativity so as not to offend other faiths, but were too afraid to actually say so, to avoid the uproar and bad press it would have got.
Pathetic.
I seem to remember that Christmas used to be a Christian celebration about the birth of Jesus.

Re: accy xmas tree
That must be the saddest/sorry looking tree I have ever seen.
It's awful, but it doesn't help it any having those railings around the bottom.
