Sir, – I would like to congratulate the ladies of Thirsk Chamber of Trade on all the hard work they have put in to raise the money for the lovely Christmas lights in Thirsk Market Place.

Thanks should also go to the people who erect and dismantle the large number of lights strung round the square.

Having all the lights one colour is magical.

Thank you so much for bringing Christmas to our town.
