Damned if they do, Damned if they don’t…
November 19th, 2004The Damned to turn on Cambridge’s Christmas lights, provoke fury amongst local clergy.
Why didn’t anything exciting like this happen when I lived there? We normally got some has-been like Christopher Biggins or that git from Big Brother (behind whom I once queued for a bus, excitingly enough) to switch them on. Utter mundanity while I was there, and after I leave, something exciting happens (about all that Cambridge gets in the news for these days, that and the whole monkey-torturing thing).
Edinburgh can’t possibly top this, not unless they ask Selfish Cunt…

The only places Christianity is alive and well pre-Christmas in the High Street is in the charity shops. The rest of is is just fun, indulgence and consumerism and the Damned seem to me (a Christian) to be an entirely appropriate choice to kick it off!
