I chose a dry, mild evening to walk a large circuit around Manchester city centre, stopping often to capture the lights.
There’s restaurant The Ivy’s declaration of love to the city, which has become an Instagram hit.

The scourge of Covid is on the rise again and this Christmas is like no other. No matter how you’re spending it this year, have a safe and happy one.
Beautiful set of festive photos, Mike. It warms the cockles, so it does…

Thank you, Richard. We still had the lights, at least. Seems like a long while ago already.

It’s pretty good even without the markets. The lights alone are plenty enough for me :)
