| Tom in the "snow" |
Friday evening was late night shopping evening in Ingleton. Beavers, cubs and scouts start the proceedings off with a lantern procession, they were followed by Father Christmas on a sleigh being pulled by two reindeer. This year, Queen Elsa was also present..."Let it go, LET IT GO"... "I HATE FROZEN" says Tom! There was a good atmosphere, we found free mulled wine and mince pies in one of the shops - always good.

| Lots of small children |
The best thing though this year was the snow machine above one of the shops. This meant that it snowed. All the children played underneath, we took photos, put them on Facebook and managed to dupe quite a lot of our friends that it really was snowing. (Hummmm, should we tell them the truth?)
We were also able to go and say hello to the reindeer - did you know they have fur on their antlers? Tom even got to stroke them.

| Enjoying ribs |
Tom then had a go on the tombola - 5 tickets for £1, those ending in a 5 or 0 won. He pulled out 3 winners so got 3 Christmas presents to unwrap!!!!!! We took them to the pub and he unwrapped them as we waited for our dinners. It was a nice evening, the village was full, the atmosphere was great and we discovered the old post office is being turned into a whisky, wine and tapas bar. Matt can't wait for it to open next week!
