Sir – Was Mr Bradnack writing tongue in cheek about the Christmas lights, or is he really a Scrooge? (Letters, December 31).
Christmas starts on Christmas Day until January 6 or even, according to the church calendar, February 2 — Candlemas.
The Christmas lights in Oxford this year have been excellent — not forgetting the magnificent tree in Magdalen College — long may they continue. Mr Bradnack can stay in Haddenham if he doesn’t approve of Oxford’s festive efforts.
