Went to see the lights at Sinnamon Park ,And i must say they are Amazing ,I also have been before ,But for some reason this year meant so much more .Then i got talking to Geoff and found out that his wife had passed and this would be his last.so i then made the to take my son who has a disability and finds it hard to cope with big crowds.So with this in mind i set off last night to show that there is still wonder in the world to day and to take his mind off his problems, Well i can mission accomplished.And heart felt thanks to Geoff and his beloved for drawing me there in the fist place.[Thank You Geoff ] you are going to be surely missed.And thanks for bringing a smile to my sons face.All the best for your new devours.Kind regards Barbara White & Family .xxxxx
