Today I present the Reading Town Centre Xmas lights. Yesterday I needed to take a walk and I rediscovered the amazing pleasure of strolling in town during the Christmas period without money or a debit card or Christmas shopping plans of any sort. It is much less stressful than actually doing any buying and the lights are beautiful to my suburban heart. I have to admit to a certain comfort about the Christmas Lights when the days are so dark and depressing, when it is getting dark around 4pm and when the available light is hindered by rain clouds as it has been for so much of this week.
