Lighting Up Whickham Meeting

I had a meeting tonight of Lighting Up Whickham, the group of volunteers who raise money for the village's Christmas tree and lights. We have three events coming up which were agreed by the meeting tonight:

• Saturday 11th November, Race Night at the Glebe Sports Ground
• Tuesday 28th November, switching on of the Christmas lights
• Saturday 9th December, Christmas fair in St Mary's Green.

All the events will raise funds for future Christmas lights. And finally, I received a request to bring along my goat Pinkie to the event on 28th November, suitably decorated with tinsel. I'm actively considering it!
