Not so much decorations, it's all about Firework displays and Huge Bonfire parties..with hot food and drink around the fire..it's only one day but the fireworks start getting set off probably a week before and sometime for a week or more after..

Here's some history for you officeripley.. thanks for being interested..

OK here's the Video I took yesterday of the Christmas Model Village... I only did it on the spur of the moment and had to try and avoid getting in the way of people. but hopefully you'll get a good look at how it all looked in real time..

That's amazing! Imagine having to put all that together.

I know.. incredible to think of the hours that went into doing it... and of course the model makers too..

Beautiful displays! I love looking at Christmas decorations that I didn’t have to put up or take down. Or find storage space for.

That was awesome! What a Herculean amount of effort - just beautiful.
I love hearing the shopper's voices too.
Thanks for posting it, Hols

You're welcome Pinks... the childrens' voices you can hear in the video, were 2 little girls who were right at my elbow standing next to their mum...they were so excited by it all

I had a post all keyed in and ready to post and lost it. Meh...

@hollydolly that video is too cute! I bet getting that display together is a year-round job. I'd be all Christmassed out if I had to do it!

I imagine that by the time Christmas came, I'd be wishing it was all over only to have to go back to work and start all over again! @hollydolly I'm assuming it's not a permanent display?

Fantastic photos Holly but I'm still dealing with witches & goblins!

No, no... it's not a permanent display, just for Christmas.. This garden centre does something new and brilliant every Year..

yes..I know we've still got to get past that yet.. but our stores are full to the brim of Christmas stuff, and barely any Halloween in comparison..

@hollydolly What a sensory overload, I love it. The size of the garden centre is impressive, too. Thanks for the seasonal cheer!
