Hungerford Arcade adorned with Christmas Trees
Despite the wind and the rain, a great crowd turned out for the switching on of the Hungerford Town Christmas lights. On the Town Hall steps, the Band played and choirs from several schools sang out. The atmosphere was fantastic with children eagerly waiting for the great switch-on. Local boy, Charlie Austin, QPR striker flicked the switch at precisely 6.00 p.m to great cheers of delight from everyone.
Very sad when they had no electricity
Kate and Lou Thomas (The Hogfather) were all set-up for their great hog roast except for one thing… their generator had stopped working. But fear not, Adrian Gilmour, co-owner of Hungerford Arcade, came to the rescue and ran the power line into the Arcade and supplied the electricity for the Hogfather to get roasting.
Kate and Lou – very happy with Hungerford Arcade electricity
As you can see, Kate and Lou were so happy that they could carry on roasting, they have now become friends of the Arcade.
