Saturday, 6th December a day to remember in Middleton – the 8th Christmas light switch on!
        In spite of rising costs, thanks to donations from residents in the village and fund-raising, we are again able to illuminate the village with pretty coloured lights over the festive season.
        The festivities begin at 6.00pm, when the village hall is open. Mince pies and punch are for sale. There will also be a raffle, tombola. and bran tub for the children.
        Thanks to Christine Thompson and her helpers, and thanks to the men folk of the village, who test the lights - put them up / and pack them away again. As without all this help, this event would not take place.
        Start Christmas 2008 at the Village Hall Middleton – the lights will be switched on at 6.30pm. Merry Christmas from the Residence of Middleton to you all.
