MAY I just say how much I agree with S Smith’s letter concerning King’s Square (The Press, December 19).

It would have been even nicer if not only the trees were lit up but also a Christmas tree with lights placed in the centre, to take the blandness away.

I imagine the excuse will be that the council could not afford it. Bah humbug, as Scrooge would say.
