Anyone tell me if you know of some nice christmas lights/displays to go see locally? I normally take my son to the houses up Bradfield but getting a bit bored of that now.

I wonder if anyone of us is going to have a neighbour who decides to use the wattage of Sizewell B to illuminate there house? |

(Like Bradfield, raising money for charity - all though I am sure they waste more money on lighting than they make money and could probably just donate that instead) |
