Wicklow Lights

Last evening it was Wicklow Town's turn for the Christmas lights switch-on and there was a fantastic atmosphere as huge crowds of children, with the requisite adults in tow, converged on Fitzwilliam Square for the arrival of Santa who performed the ceremonial task.  Brilliantly organised by Wicklow Town Chamber Retail Committee, we even had snow, well, the remains of the heavy overnight snow which lingered here and there and completed that touch of Christmas.
