Yes I'm sure I saw the nativity outside the Bulls head? It did use to be outside the Barclay's bank. Crimbo tree is still there, but Nativity has moved to a better location.

I do hope that the new location of the nativity, outside the Bulls Head, will ensure that it is free from wanton vandalism.
I shall miss seeing it as I pass by as a passenger in a car though

I think it looks lovely where it is, it brings people back into the priecent, all very well driving past, much better to walk by it and also see the lovely shops at the top end of Marple too.
I'm glad it has been moved from outside Barclay's bank, just because it is outside a pub doesn't mean it will get vandalised.
The band was playing by it on saturday, much safer don't you agree instead of next to the busy road? Will santa be parking there too this year? anyone know?  ???

Whilst on the subject of lights, I would like to congratulate the resident on Dale Road for his display which is well up to the high standard he has set in the past.  Well done, and thank you for the pleasure you bring. :)

I took a walk this evening to see the crib, I was really looking forward to seeing it illuminated, but unfortuantely it was not.

Further the comment regarding Dale Road, can I just say that this evening my 3 year old son thoroughly enjoyed the display!  Thanks very much from one happy child and one happy father  :D

Well done!
