We don't know yet if they managed to break the record or not, but in either case the day can be seen as a giant success as Snowmen, Santa's, elves and reindeer turned the city centre into a world of Christmas cheer yesterday! More than 3,473 people were needed to have taken part in order to break the existing record, which is held by the American city of Kansas.
