LETTER: McDonalds is lacking in Christmas spirit
From 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. they sang Christmas songs. They were on the bandstand for two hours in freezing weather but it didn’t stop them belting out their songs.
During a short interval, staff took them all into McDonalds to get hot chocolate drinks to warm them up and tried hard to negotiate a reduction in price.

Where is your Christmas spirit? You should have given these children hot drinks free of charge. They worked extremely hard to collect donations for the school funds and I am sure that it is groups such as theirs which make late-night shopping a pleasure in our town.
If businesses in Burnley want to attract the shoppers then they need to get more involved with groups that are willing to stand in the cold for two hours to entertain.
To the Brunshaw singers, I say well done to you all, absolutely fantastic entertainment. You did your school proud.
