Just got back from the Christmas Light Switch on in Birmingham

[T16GEM]

It was very good, if not a bit chilly! A friend works at Milennium Point so we got special passes to go indoors out of the cold, which was good!

We watched all of the bands, Ocean Colour Scene, McFly, Simon Webb, The Automatic and a couple of others that I wasn't sure who they were!

The lights were switched on my Simon Webb, DH wanted to know where the rest of Blue were! And then they had fire works which were really good - nothing like Wishes of course but for the UK they were good! Shelby just waved at the fireworks too which was cute!

And all for Free! So a good night was had by all!

Anybody else go?
