Xmas poster in June

24/52 for the group 2016 Weekly Alphabet Challenge

This week's theme was: X is for X-Factor

Only a few more shopping days to Xmas! We were completely baffled by the poster when we saw it, but I've at last got around to searching for the explanation. Because last Christmas in Hebden Bridge was somewhat spoilt by the horrendous floods, they are celebrating an alternative Christmas in June. I think the whole town definitely has the X-Factor!

So well done Hebden Bridge for thinking of a novel way to celebrate both getting back on your feet after such a disaster and enjoying all the Christmas goodies you missed out on last winter.
