With Bonnyrigg man Davie Brown calling time on his Christmas lights display, readers have sent in their photos from over the years.

The spectacular spectacle at Davie’s Polton Street home has thrilled locals young and old for 11 years, while also raising £24,000 for Marie Curie. But following his wife Ann’s passing in August, Davie no longer feels he can continue. He will donate his extensive light collection to Poltonhall Gala Day for the community to enjoy for years to come.
