So is anyone going? Hips like cinderella are playing there in the afternoon about 3 ish. I wandered down last year it was alright actually, the guys on stilts were pretty funny.

I thought this was the weekend just gone, I thought I'd missed it...

Anyone got any suggestions as to where I can go on the 17th, then? :)

I would love to, but unfortunately it's Rangers bottom of the table clash with Droylsden for me. I will take Seedling Minor to see Santa arrive, but will have to skeedaddle pretty soon after that!

I will be on the microphone giving a big shout out to all me old mates from 10.25am for a few hours. I shall try my hardest to get the Stafford Song played, (should be easy enough, 'cos I'll be in charge of the cd player), and I shall big up the Forum as often as poss. If you are appearing in the parade please let me know before so I can give you a special big up.

Just come back from the Santa Parade, better than I thought it was going to be to be honest, and the wee one loved it!

Just a shame about the weather! Back into town later for the big switch on! Will joxers be serving pints in plastic pots so we can enjoy a beer whilst watching the light switch on and fireworks?

I took some very special photos of the fireworks, but I don't have time to post them just yet, but tomorrow...

Who else thinks the lights on the tree on the roundabout by the jail looks like they have just been thrown on? Part from that good day!!!!

I've never seen that many people in Stafford at any one time! We like the lights on the one by the roundabout, a nice touch this side of town.
