Civic fairy light upgrade

By johnboy 4 September 2013 5

Canberra CBD have the thrilling news that they’re upping the ante on the fairy light front:

Fairy lights add a twinkle to the night time experience. Our satisfaction survey tells us that you really enjoy these and the flowers in pots. Canberra CBD Limited pays for these. Many of the lights are broken so we are updating them and including new trees in time for Christmas.

What’s Your opinion?

Good on you Canberra CBD – I certainly do enjoy the fairy lights and flowers in pots.

Stunning night time display of fairy lights in the West Row/London Circuit park, near the Canberra Arcade.

There are some very pretty ones near the Canberra Times fountain. Sort of clusters, as opposed to the usual fairy light arrangement. More of those, please.

Woo!

What?

I like pretty lights.

Today's Poll

A new car service is promising a $350 joint fare for a chauffeured ride to Sydney. Are you tempted to take up the offer?

Yes, great idea. It would be more reliable than then plane, faster than the train and less stress than driving myself.
No thanks, it takes three hours to get to Sydney however you do it. And the bus costs a fraction of the price.
