There are leaflets and posters in most shops in town - including Waitrose, WH Smiths, Roberto Gerrards, Kitten, The Women's Society etc etc and the tourist info

Glad to hear the switch on is at 4.00pm this year. I missed the whole thing last year running back to get my car out of the car park which was closing at 5.00 [:(!]

The Herald website has details of the Christmas lights switch-ons, and a few other events, in the area: http://www.herald24.co.uk/christmas/lights.aspx and the AskWatson site has more detail: http://www.herald24.co.uk/christmas/lights.aspx

Anyone know who if any local 'celebrity' will be switching on the lights? The only candidates I can think of are... Rupert Grint and, of course, there is always the celebrated local author who is rarely out of the newspapers... John Barber [:D]
