IT’S that time of the year again, when residents start decorating their homes and gardens for Christmas.
This means it’s also time for residents to share in the magic of Christmas by planning which of these decorated properties they want to view.
If you’re going to decorate your home or business this year, we want to hear from you. Please forward your address, as well as the dates and times when the lights will be switched on, to cvdwalt@caxton.co.za, by no later than 10:00 on Thursday.
