 A vandal set alight to this Christmas tree in the main street of Ballarat. Reportedly $60,000 damage. Goodness only knows what the whole tree, decorations and lights, cost in the first place. Security guards saw the incident and gave chase but the culprit got away. I hate vandals.

They made a smaller tree out of the remains.

How sad. :( But I applaud the spirit of building another one from what remained.

That's pretty "Grinchy". Some people are just not right at all. To some of us, it would seem odd to celebrate Christmas in mid summer.

What a shame. Good documentary work on your part.
