Cleethorpes lights up ready for Christmas
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in Cleethorpes with its three Christmas trees lit up.
Tonight a trio of festive trees were lit at the Cleethorpes Memorial Hall, St Peter's Church and at High Cliff and the vicar of Old Clee Church, Rev Richard Holden blessed them all.

There was quite a crowd at the Memorial Hall with the cast from this years panto, Dick Whittington at the Parkway Cinema, the lights were switched on.
It was then on up Isaacs Hill to St Peter's Church accompanied by children holding lanterns which they were given. And with everyone joining in a countdown the beautiful tree was lit.
Then on to High Cliff for were the Mayor of North East Lincolnshire, Councillor Mike Burton, switched on the tree lights and at the same time the lights on Sea View Street came on. The tree at High Cliff was were paid for by the Seaview Street Traders Association.

“I think the Cleethopres In Bloom team did a fantastic job and made the lighting of the Christmas trees a big event, especially for the children.
It was a shame Leroy Vickers couldn't make it at the last minute BUT an even bigger shame was that there was only one shop open and that was JKs in Sea View Street.
I feel a big opportunity was missed here tonight there was a lot of people and families there tonight. As Cleethorpes traders are complaining about a lack of business, why wasn't something organised to have the shops open, even stalls on the streets selling crafts and food maybe?”
