A Few Months Too Early For Santa
A Lancashire town has put up its Christmas lights - 127 days before Christmas. Rochdale Council says the lights in Milnrow will be used in celebrations for several faiths, including the Wicca festival Yule celebrated by white witches and pagans on the winter solstice.
FOOTNOTE: Yule be bewildered.
Now all those celebrating will know WATTS up

ReplyDeleteI was in Lancashire last week and it was really dark. I think that they could do with some extra light!
ReplyDeletenow is this forward thinking or laziness i wonder...
ReplyDeleteThat's weird.It is too early for Christmas lights.A waste of electricity.
ReplyDeleteWe have lights strung all across the Prom the whole year round - but they save the reindeer and Santa's for December. There is nothing prettier than seeing the lights reflect off the bay at night, it always lifts the heart!
