Christmas spoilers, vandals.

I heard a sad story tonight. There are a couple of retired pensioners that are in there 70’s living at Russell place Gt Harwood and each year, like many other years they have modestly decorated the terraced house small front garden with a few Christmas lights.

They had done the same this year but come last Friday night someone had decided that it wasn’t a nice idea to decorate one’s front garden for the festive season so proceeded to damage and trash the pensioner’s efforts and as a result the said pensioners have decided to call it quits and not bother anymore.

They’ve had bother in the past with the odd bulb disappearing but nothing like this. They’ve even had xmas cards from other neighbours from further down the street thanking them for their efforts.

It is a shame really because it all adds to the charismas atmosphere and I’m sure that the young kids love it when ever they see things like this.
