HELLO everyone and welcome to the Journal Gang page.

It has been a busy couple of weeks with Christmas and New Year celebrations. I hope you all had a brilliant time and had plenty of festive fun.

I had a wonderful Christmas with all my friends and family, sitting by the warm fire and eating a delicious festive feast.

On Christmas morning Father Christmas had left some presents under the tree for me. I was delighted to find a skateboard and have been busy practising tricks ever since. I am very glad Father Christmas brought me a helmet and some knee pads as I’ve spent a lot of time falling off the board as I try to master all the tricks.

Are you planning to take up any exciting new hobbies? Why not take a picture and email it to gang@salisburyjournal.co.uk.

I hope you all have a great New Year!

This week we are finding out what it is like to be in panto and catch up with stars Kieran Buckeridge and Ella Vale.

We also take a look at the illuminating lantern parade, which brightened up Amesbury.
