And the Christmas lights this year are going to be turned on by..

This year the Stony Stratford Christmas Lights will be switched-on Sam from the Golden Sea Chinese take-away. Sam's business has been in the town for over 30 years now and he's commonly referred to as one of the nicest people you'll meet!

Aw bless. The most we ever had in my home town was a failed X factor contestant. Who if memory serves didn't even bother to turn up 0.o

We had Steven Hall from BGT as he's from my hometown. He performed a brand new special Christmas routine.

Also he used to babysit me & my brother when we were kids. He wasn't keen on dancing then. :P

Peppa Pig was turning on the lights near me. Unfortunately I wasn't able to go.



Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future
that year by year recedes before us.
It eluded us then, but that's no matter - tomorrow we
will run faster, stretch out our arms further...

And one fine morning -
So we beat on, boats against the current,
borne back ceaselessly into the past.

i couldn't be bothered to stand in the cold, but its just the local radio presenter and the mayor that turns them on. I did see the fireworks all nice and cosy from my window.

I'm don't think anybody famous turned on the city lights but we had Peter Andre turn on the lights at the East Kilbride Shopping Centre. Needless to say I wasn't there.

Anyway, it turns out he's been all over the UK doing this....

I don't have a clue who turned the lights on for us this year. Probably some shitty celeb no one really cares about... Unless they're female/male and aged between 12-17 and have the horn for the person. XD
