THERE has been a minor problem with the lights on the High Street cherry trees due to the recent very heavy rain.

But the lights are all now working and the High Street is lit up and ready for Christmas.

REMEMBER: The lighting of the Rotary Clubs’ Christmas Tree will be on Saturday from 2.45pm. There will be carols accompanied by the East Grinstead Town Band and the Reverend Clive Everett-Allen will give a blessing.

Town Mayor Nick Hodges will switch the lights on at 3pm.

Parking on Saturday afternoon will be £1 in all the MSDC car parks, so why not shop in town to support our traders and then go along for some carolling around the tree?

* The Town Council will not be responsible for the Christmas lights display in their entirety until 2016, and in the run-up to that date will be meeting interested parties and, where possible, taking their views into account.
