Hi, I just wanted to drop a line to tell you about The Magic of Christmas. It is on at the NEC and we went today. Just got back! It is super. There is snow and Father Christmas, a toy workshop and loads of rides for the kids to play on. My children are 4 and 7 and they totally loved the experience. The adults were not too keen on the naughty and nice test - but all was well! It is on until next Sunday.CheersCatherine
