Presumably it started yesterday but Boar Lane, Park Row and the Headrow were only done today. They are back. Presumably its about 5 weeks before they are "officially" switched on but who wants to guess on which z-list celeb will do it!

I think it should be Si doing the big switch on, for guessing it was Brandy re incarnated as 'Fevlad the orrible ghost of Christmas past' lol

I rank Si well above Z-list so they probably can't afford his fee

Total waste of money IMO. Christmas tree in front of the town hall end of. Or a big illuminated sign above the Civic Hall saying "Bah Humbug!"Seriously I think especially in places like Rothwell, Morley, Pudsey,etc they are a waste of money. And they're up there for months!

They were there at half 7 when I got to work, but weren't on Saturday night at 1 when I left town in the evening. Great! Cant wait for them to get switched on and the yellow hue of the snowman's lights come shining through my office windows!

Oh, I don't know, up here they look nice swinging the gale force winds that typify December 600 feet above sea level in Yorkshire. And March for that matter
