'Christmas' streets

[philosophie]

Following on from how brilliant Melbourne Grove was for Halloween this year, are there plans for any streets to go the extra mile with Christmas lights? It would genuinely be a highlight for me and my baby - don't recommend having a baby in lockdown and don't recommend having a baby during a pandemic! A nice buggy walk with some festive lights to coo at would cheer us both right up. And nice and Covid safe too ☺️

Hi

The stores nn Lordship lane and Northcross Rd will be lighting up the trees along the lane and Rd, with Xmas lights. We are organising a social distance xmas event, in place of the cancelled Xmas cracker. It will be on the 12th of December. Each store have organised an in store event for the ED community. We will post further details of the event on here nearer the time.

Take care

Sounds fantastic, thank you!

Trossachs Road

From 1 December, Trossachs Road is creating an Advent Calendar. Each evening, up to Christmas, around 5-6pm, a different house will "open" a decorated window to celebrate the season. Attached shows which houses & which days

Tempted to turn up on Christmas eve with my housemates, nice and drunk, with lots of cans of lager and portable speakers- blast out some drum & bass remixes of Christmas tunes.

Funny, that's just the sort of thing Steven Taylor would say.

Court Lane is usually a good bet as well.

Now now Sue, dontbesilly...

P.S. your post made me laugh out loud as I had exactly the same reaction.

Enjoy a festive tipple or brunch to support local businesses while your kids have fun at the Yeeha! Grotto. Book your little ones to come to our ?The Snowman & The Snowdog? grotto with fluffy snow, Xmas disco, and festive kids films, so you can finish your Christmas shopping along our SE22 ?Mile of Smiles? - a local small business treasure hunt on Grove Vale, Melbourne Grove, Northcross Road and Lordship Lane.

Children and adults get goodie bags with gifts from your local independent retailers too!

If memory serves, Shrieker wasn't cloning him/herself at exactly the same time. But then my memory is rubbish so I may be wrong :))

Edited to add: I love the sound of the Christmas streets, thanks to all involved!

(and edited again to remove a typo .....)
