    Dublin City Council organise the tree and lights on Henry St.

    There is nothing on the website yet saying when it will happen though, it says its still up for tender.

    Is it just me or does that seem really early this year? I suppose traders need something to kick start the shopping season earlier after the ****e year we've had this year!

    I believe this is a testing period, with the official turning on being the 21st. You'll find they'll prob have them switched off again in a day or so.
