When I lived at the YMCA in Pitt st when I was 17 I was working in Smith and Caughey in Queen st during Christmas, we used to do a wonderful display in the windows I believe they became well-loved, that was 50 years ago I hope they have still carried on the tradition, it's good to see so many people still come out for the parade, there used to be a giant Farmers store Santa put up on one of the buildings, I wonder what happened to it?
@@davethedutchmansabventures I will have another look, it was quite sunny wasn't it you were all very lucky to have such nice weather for the parade, I enjoyed my time at Smith and Caughey, I worked in the men's department it was very much like the tv comedy are you being served with me as the cheeky young assistant lol.
@pillred5974 The weather was awesome. It was overcast, not too hot, cool breeze, and a few raindrops now and then. The window display is not in my video....sorry
@@davethedutchmansabventures No problem. It was great of you to post all the parade. It's funny for me to think I was there for the 40th in 1973, and now there were you at the 91st. Where did the time go?

@pillred5974 They still do their windows. They are really making it beautiful 😍
I took videos but the shine on the windows made it difficult to see
