The annual #TrafalgarSquare #Trafalgartree lights switch on, with @MayorofLondon, @LM_Westminster, Mayor of Oslo, #AnneLindboe and of course the @TrafalgarsTree @trafalgartree. As is the tradition, it rained heavily, but was lovely. Mulled wine now! Pic set at Alamy Live News.

This is the Trafalgar Square Christmas Tree before & after its settling & its "hair transplant" (they hammer extra branches into the gaps to even it out - an impressively symmetrical job). The lighting ceremony is this Thursday at 5.30pm.

The #TrafalgarSquare Christmas tree was switched on this evening - the beginning of the countdown to the #festive season. The tree has been an annual gift from #Norway to the people of Britain since 1947, in gratitude for Britain's support during #WorldWarTwo. @TrafalgarsTree
