• IS it just me or is anyone else concerned that the Christmas lights are still on in the centre of Camden (Parkway, Chalk Farm Road, Camden High Street, Camden Road)?

I’m assuming taxpayers are footing the bill for this. I have contacted the council, but it’s unlikely that I will receive a reply until mid-July, when it’s probably deemed the Christmas lights should be turned on, such is the ridiculous run-up to Christmas that we experience nowadays.
