Before there was [Christmas] light

While I was not able to go to the Christmas lights switch-on in the Market Place today (but I did in 2019), I did at least manage to get down into town during the daytime, for one of the most exciting events in this, the last 5 weeks of the market and fair taking place in 2021, 800 years after the granting of the charters.

I had a quick look at the market stalls, watched the fairground rides thrilling the customers, and listened to some brilliant acts on the stage, projected onto the big screen. I didn't quite make it into the Town Hall to the craft fair, but have done this in previous years.

Here are some snaps of that daytime visit: 

Anyone for sprouts - or scarves?!

One of these is bound to win you the best Christmas jumper competition!

Loughborough-themed table coverings! The Sockman sitteth!

A view of the Town Hall on a table!

Who wouldn't want this shiny green bauble under their Christmas tree?!
