Merry Christmas!

From Broad St to the Royal Square... this won't be a bank this time next year, as they're moving up Vine St.






Looking back along Library Place (that was a library on the left).








.. and into the Square.








Statue.








Towards the Nativity Scene...







.. and back...







.. closer.








From the steps...









.. lighter version.







In the cosy corner.







From towards Halkett Place...







and from there, a quick glimpse of King St., where there won't be a Woolies next year.

Have a wonderful Christmas!

Yet more lights...

The Town Hall, St.Helier...










.. and towards the Parade from that area...








.. before we move on to Charing Cross...








.. and look back up York St...








.. closer.







Here I am, on my column. Hi!








The kind of view I have up King St and Broad St...








.. closer.







I like my spot here...







.. farther.







Down in Broad St where the taxis used to be...









.. next time we'll head onwards into the Royal Square.

Yet more lights

Nativity scene at West's Center









Heading up Bath St, a row of trees...







RBS from Minden Place...








.. closer.








Halkett Place...







.. closer.







The Parade Gardens - lights left over from the ice skating here last year?






General Don







Certainly brightens up this part of town - well done St.H!







The Cenotaph...







.. and Mr Sand-Sculptor's festive offering...








.. and on we go to York St and Charing Cross....

.. next time on "Why The Heck Does He Bother?"-matic :)

More Christmas lights...

Halkett Street, by Dix-Neuf...









.. the crossroads with French Lane, by Mc.D, with Boots up on the corner on the left...







.. looking right up French Lane towards the Market entrance.

Let's now wander around the block...






In Queen St, looking back...









.. at the Queen St / King St / Halket Place junction.








.. around the corner making our way down French Lane...








.. with a peek through the window of the pub on the left...








.. and then the market, all closed up for the night...








.. and back to Mc.D again.








I then wandered off down Bath St.... West's Center next time :)

St. Helier by night at Christmas

King Street







By De Gruchy








Jewellers at New Cut









.. and back down King Street...







.. and another corner of that junction.









Through New Cut to Broad Street...








.. and the old taxi rank now paved over.








.. from Conway Street.




Down at the Weighbridge the Museum arch is lit blue, and the cross beyond can be seen at the signal station up at Fort Regent.










Looking through the railings into the museum courtyard...






.. behind us here, the museum looks out onto the newly paved over Weighbridge area...






.. with under-lit stone benches and a nicely decorated tree in the general direction of Liberation Square.





More to come... if anyone wants them..... just say the word :)
