Market Day
Market day in Wallingford, nearly Christmas and lots of trees waiting to be bought
Just along the road outside the Jewelers is a find Christmas display
Mine is still out in the yard, hopefully I'll bring it in the weekend. I don't think I have ever hear of any one useing real candles, even as a kid we had electric lights, mine are LED now
Hari Om Oh I agree, the purple bows are very striking!! I grew up always raising the tree and decorations on first Sunday in Advent. I do know some traditions have it being raised on C/Eve - but that is way too much work at a time when one ought to be going to bed early and waiting for Santa....... &*> YAMxx
