From Christmas light switch ons, to seeing Father Christmas, from Christmas tree festivals to a fabulous show of Christmas lights on a house, we’ve got them all.

t’s nice to look back on Christmas celebrations and remember what we did.

Let’s hope this Christmas is a wonderful time despite the threat of Covid-19 hanging over us.
