I'm not a great one for lighting the streets or my house up like Blackpool illuminations. As a child though I did really look forward to seeing the Christmas tree in the Post Office garden in Stanhill and at the Library in Ossy, along with the Nativity crib near the War Memorial. The same went for the tree and Nativity in Accrington.

I don't know where the money went to, but the Nativity scenes were used to raise money, and there were slots in the glass for you to put money through.

I too really hope to see them in place soon.
