On Wednesday afternoon I met up with Brian Burgess, the Newbury Retail Association Chairman to present the prizes for the best dressed window competition winner.
The outright winner was Panousha Baguettes in The Arcade - a lovely display by the owner Tracey Gerayesh of flowerpots and robins with Father Christmas. One of the runner ups was also in The Arcade - Kuva, which has only been open for five weeks, and sells photos of local scenes as calenders, jigsaws, mousemats etc, together with other interesting things. The other runner up was Barbar Ella Hairdressers of Cheap Street, who had created a Christmas Scene in their shop window with reindeer and fairy lights twinkling in the snow. I hope more shops make an effort next Christmas - everyone can enjoy a good shop window.
