Christmas At The Gardens

A Memory of Dewsbury.

I was born in 1965 and I remember the 'Nativity' being at the gardens at Christmas time. I used to love looking at the different characters; the shepherds, the three kings, but best of all I used to love looking at the 'manger scene' at the far left hand side with the baby Jesus. The characters were the same every year but the enjoyment was always the same. I have a 19 year old son and I have never been able to show him this wonderful memory from my childhood as the authorities stopped doing it a number of years ago. Does anyone else remember the Nativity?

How lovely to hear of some one who remembers the nativity, I can go back even further, I was born in 1949 and my grandad used to take us every year, as you say it was always the same, but how good it was. I suppose I was lucky I was able to take our 3 children to see them in the late sixties and early seventies, why are we not allowed it now.?????? Decisions made by politicians to be politician correct, HAPPY CHRISTMAS
