Christmas can officially start now – here are the pictures from last Thursday night to prove it…<\/p>\n

We started off by candlelight in Dock Cafe – amazing to hear a packed crowd of local residents, students, businesspeople, Dock volunteers and visitors belting out some favourite Christmas carols<\/p>\n

\"16010103321_529707cc7c_o\" <\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>\n

Then we ventured out into the softly falling snow (yes actually, how’s that for timing!) as Santa proved once and for all that he don’t need no chimney:<\/p>\n

\"15389780894_908b026907_o\" <\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>\n

Then Santa and the elves led us across the bridge to SS Nomadic…

Where our wonderful neighbours were waiting with hot drinks and mince pies (as well as a specially-made grotto for the star guest)<\/p>\n

And finally we all made our way to Dock Market to eat, drink and Christmas shop amongst the wafting scents of sizzling burgers, waffles, cupcakes and freshly-cut Christmas trees…<\/p>\n

Now THAT’S a Titanic Christmas!<\/p>\n
