Aaaaaahhh..!! Affy bonnie. This looks kind of cosy and quaint now, but this is how they went about switching the christmas lights on in Dundee in the early 80's. Just a bit of a sing-song....no pyrotechnics.

A WEE LOOK BACK AT DUNDEE - 1960's, 1970's & 1980's.
I think I preferred it that way...and with a real tree.
ReplyDeleteTended to be on a Thursday evening and other than the lights themselves, the only other attraction was a brass band and a chestnut seller.
The days of just taking a dander down to see the lights go on was a far more relaxed and enjoyable event than the commercial crush it is these days.
And you could probably have a wee drink while there too, unlike now.
