Blip Advent Calendar - Day 9!

You're opening the door on a beautifully festive scene at The Piece Hall in Halifax.

The Piece Hall has been transformed into a real winter wonderland with a huge and spectacular Christmas tree, a traditional carousel and a circus style Spiegeltent where many a festive event will take place. It plays host to family shows, live music, stand up comedy, cabaret and also family craft workshops.

You can probably also spot, if you look closely, the giant light up lettering which reads CHRISTMAS.

Just a wonderful, warm atmosphere as I walked around despite the cold, dark, wet evening.

Today's quote you ask? Well, it's from a Japanese proverb. "One kind word can warm three winter months."
