Last year’s event raised £2,000 for the Adderbury based hospice and this year they hope to smash that total with a new initiative.

An eBay auction has been set up to become a passenger in one of the tractors. Potential passengers have until 6pm on Sunday, December 17 to place a bid at which point the highest bidder will be announced.

Last year’s event saw a convoy of 26 brightly lit machines trundle through numerous villages.
