Darnok Posted January 6, 2019 Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) Merrynight had come and gone, and the unusually cold weather still held Mesabi Landing in its cold grip. This did not stop the people enjoying the Merrymas Market though, which had been build up over the last weeks: .. .. .. A few more shops had been set up, and during the Twelve Days Of Merrymas, the market was buzzing with activity: . . . . And after a successful rehearsal, some talented singers from the WTC gave their interpretation of a song popular all over Corrington during these festive days: The Twelve Days Of Merrymas On the first day of Merrymas, my Queen has given me: A parrot in a palm tree.

A good part of the Merrymas Market has been shown in the WTC Advent Calendar already, but I made some amendments to make it a "full" property, mostly more shops and minifigs. Birds-eye overview: The "Twelve Days Of Merrymas" song is of course based on a very similar real song, my favourite interpretation being this one. My thanks go to both @Mesabi and @Ayrlego for helping with the lyrics. As always, C&C are appreciated. Edited January 7, 2019 by Drunknok Overview shot added. Quote

And good job getting all the prior material together at the top. Gotta love those new candle & flame pieces. 'Bout time they made 'em if you ask me. Quote

About the "little bit late" part: the "Twelve Days of Christmas" are actually from December 25th to January 6th. There are parts of the world that celebrate Christmas on the 6th, and what the so-called "western world" celebrates as Christmas season is really only the time leading up to Christmas Eve. In short: not late at all. Quote
