News the local
Dear Readers Well Christmas is finally here so we wish you all a safe but merry time over the festive season. There are plenty of ideas here in the local Oracle for presents and taxi services to take you to your work or family parties. Have a great time and we will be out again in January. A number of shops will be open on Sundays in the lead up to Christmas including Abbey Arcade, Bijoux Marianne, Was Down Swan Street and the newly renamed and relocated Chocolate Umbrella. They will also be opening for late night shopping on Thursday 8th December. Please try and support your local businesses! Remember, you can see an up to date copy of the local Oracle on line. www.thelocaloracle.co.uk Anna & Jane
