| The Deli Diner serving freshly cooked, piping hot food after last night's Christmas lights switch on in Brigg town centre |
The Brigg town centre Christmas lights - provided by our Town Council - were switched on at a ceremony held in the Market Place last night. A big crowd turned out to watch and then enjoy the accompanying Brigg District Lions' fair and market, with stalls throughout the town centre and a craft section in the Angel Suite. Brigg shops stayed open until 9pm, in some cases, to offer people the chance to snap up Christmas gifts. The weather was cold and windy, but the rain held off.

| North Lindsey College, Scunthorpe, which is celebrating 60 years, had a stand in the Angel Suite last night and displayed many Press cuttings going back over the decades. Something different - and of interest to many visitors. |

| A Dickensian Christmas feel to the window display in Natalie Sankey's sweet shop. Did she sell much Humbug? |
 |
| We passed Sankey's shop several times and the queue was always out the door! |

| Strike up the band! |
