    Quality work probably from Sunderland illuminations.

    Was with the kids in the park today and noticed some T&E snaking up a tree. Loving the cable clips. The second piccy the cable goes underground and reappears just by the small rock to the right. Although it's fenced off I'm inclined to contact the council about it. Shoddy.
