MAY I congratulate the town council for a fantastic show of lights in Evesham.

Yes, I was joking. Scrooge himself could not have done better.

Where are the lights? What a pathetic array of lights in Bridge Street.

The Christmas tree has not had all its lights and bubbles and spangles added to it yet, but I won't hold my breath on seeing more.

On Saturday afternoon I walked along the High Street, and back into Bridge Street among the stalls. I thought, this reminds of my days in the Far East. They were like Third World stalls. Pathetic.

Come on, councillors, make a effort.
