A GUID New Year tae yin and a’; and mony may ye see; And during a’ the year tae come, O Happy may ye be.

Quick fact: Did you sing the traditional “Auld Lang Syne” at the stroke of midnight? Did you know it is a Scots-language poem sung worldwide and was written by Robert Burns in 1788?

Our Santa’s drawing competition winner Ruby receiving her £50 Smyths Toys voucher last night. Just in time for the big day 🎄🎅🤶❤️

Thank you

Folks we hope your wee ones enjoyed our Santa’s drive-by this evening.

We can only apologise for the wait in this cold night. As you can appreciate the estate is a big area to cover. We are also sorry if we didn’t get up your street, as you can imagine parking is an issue not to mention Santa, Mrs Claus and his elves were out for over 3 hours open to the elements and we covered as much as we could.
But they live in the North Pole we hear your kids ask, they should be used to the weather……parents can explain that one 😅
Big thanks to Ulster Motivational and B&Q / B&Q for their help. Have a safe and enjoyable Christmas everyone 🎅🧑‍🎄🎄❤️

And were off
