Buxton Calling #8 | December 2015

Wintery Tales

This month is full of Christmas cheer and memories of the ICI Christmas parties. It appears to have changed one Buxton resident’s views on Santa but you’ll have to listen to find out exactly what we mean.

Although we tend to collect people’s memories of the past, we do like to show Buxton‘s present and remind listeners of what a currently vibrant town we are.

This week, in the local paper, the Buxton Advertiser, I noticed that the local council were contemplating buying quad bikes to help with snow clearance. It was interesting to hear, therefore, what the council deployed in the 1930s, brought vividly alive through memories of one of our contributors.

We also have many snowy Buxton memories from years past, so enjoy the last podcast of 2015 and may we wish you all a very happy Christmas.
