Hail Bright Herald
As the sad sun sets we gather
Awaits the longest night
With heart and soul we revel
To hold the darkness back
Whilst time itself is frozen
We lead a whirling band
To beach and shore we hasten
To set a burning brand
Pitch black is our costume
Bright white our merry light
For we will keep the vigil
Through this unholy night
So hail bright Herald hail now
The darkness shall not sway
So hail bright herald hail now
Lets greet the dawn of day

Looking forward to the big parade!
I don celebrate christmas in the traditional sense so I look forward to the burning of the clocks because its my last day before I hybernate for winter and I get to see friends and the parade before I close down my hatches as I dont like the COLD weather and prefer to stay home cosy and warm

Last year, I and no doubt many others paid for and assembled their clocks from the kits you provided (I paid about £16 for 2 lanterns) Because of a small amount of snow, the event was cancelled and many children were dissapointed. I have saved these unused lanterns and hope that I can use them in this year's parade.
Thanks for your comment - as you can see on the Join In page in the instructions for coming to the event, we are welcoming families with lanterns from last year to join this years parade. If you don't still have the instructions for the event day, email us and we'll send them out to you. We'll see you there!
