22 Nov 2025 #christmaslights #christmaslightslondon #christmas

Ready for the most dazzling festive experience in the world? Join us for the ultimate night walk as we chase the glow of the magnificent London Christmas Lights! This is more than sightseeing—it's stepping into a magical atmosphere where history meets holiday cheer. We cover all the must-see spots, from hidden historic pubs to the major shopping streets.

 

The tradition of the London Christmas Lights dates back to 1954, a beloved event that officially launches the festive season and draws millions globally. Seeing this spectacle in person truly captures the essence of a traditional British holiday. By night, London transforms into a glowing wonderland, and we're here to show you exactly why this experience is unforgettable.

 

Our atmospheric adventure starts in the heart of the City at the historic and enchanting Leadenhall Market. This beautifully preserved Victorian covered market, with its ornate ironwork, feels like stepping back in time—a truly magical place once used in the Harry Potter films. Its festive lights offer a warm, intimate start to our tour.

 

We then journey to the theatrical core of London. Leicester Square hosts a traditional, charming Christmas market, perfect for a cosy break with mulled wine. Right next door, Covent Garden is pure festive theatre, complete with a giant Christmas tree and a canopy of twinkling mistletoe and bells.

 

Next, we head west to Notting Hill Gate for a view of one of London’s most famous and extravagantly decorated pubs: The Churchill Arms. Adorned floor-to-ceiling with countless trees and lights, it's a quintessential, festive pit stop.

 

Finally, we arrive at the spectacular West End. We'll explore Oxford St, one of the city's main corridors of light, followed by the breathtaking arches of Regent St, famed for its "Spirit of Christmas" angels. Prepare to be mesmerised by the themed holiday windows at Selfridges, a genuine feast for the eyes, often featuring stunning Disney-inspired scenes! This stretch of the West End is the beating heart of the London Christmas Lights display.

 

You must visit London at this time of year for this atmosphere. The city's combination of historical landmarks and stunning light installations creates a truly unique and deeply festive journey.

heard by jan when she leaves she will be entitled to a congress pension after 5 years.

seems that is a true fact.

 

-

A member of the U.S. House of Representatives must serve at least five years to be eligible for a pension.

This five-year requirement is a standard vesting rule for pension eligibility under both the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS) and the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS)

https://www.congress.gov/crs-product/RL30631

Summary

 

Prior to 1984, neither federal civil service employees nor Members of Congress paid Social Security taxes, nor were they eligible for Social Security benefits. Members of Congress and other federal employees were instead covered by a separate pension plan called the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS). The 1983 amendments to the Social Security Act (P.L. 98-21) required federal employees first hired after 1983 to participate in Social Security. These amendments also required all Members of Congress to participate in Social Security as of January 1, 1984, regardless of when they first entered Congress. Because CSRS was not designed to coordinate with Social Security, Congress directed the development of a new retirement plan for federal workers. The result was the Federal Employees' Retirement System Act of 1986 (P.L. 99-335).

 

Members of Congress first elected in 1984 or later are covered automatically under the Federal Employees' Retirement System (FERS). All Senators and those Representatives serving as Members prior to September 30, 2003, may decline this coverage. Representatives entering office on or after September 30, 2003, cannot elect to be excluded from such coverage. Members who were already in Congress when Social Security coverage went into effect could either remain in CSRS or change their coverage to FERS. Members are now covered under one of four different retirement arrangements:

 

CSRS and Social Security;

The CSRS Offset plan, which includes both CSRS and Social Security, but with CSRS contributions and benefits reduced by Social Security contributions and benefits;

FERS, which includes the FERS basic retirement annuity, Social Security, and Thrift Savings Plan (TSP); or

Social Security alone.

Congressional pensions, like those of other federal employees, are financed through a combination of employee and employer contributions. All Members pay Social Security payroll taxes equal to 6.2% of the Social Security taxable wage base ($160,200 in 2023). Members first covered by FERS prior to 2013 also pay 1.3% of full salary to the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund (CSRDF). Members of Congress first covered by FERS in 2013 contribute 3.1% of pay to the CSRDF. Members of Congress first covered by FERS after 2013 contribute 4.4% of pay to the CSRDF. Members covered by CSRS Offset pay 1.8% of the first $160,200 of salary in 2023, and 8.0% of salary above this amount, into the CSRDF.

 

Under both CSRS and FERS, Members of Congress are eligible for a pension at the age of 62 if they have completed at least 5 years of service. Members are eligible for a pension at age 50 if they have completed 20 years of service, or at any age after completing 25 years of service. The amount of the pension depends on length of service (as measured in months) and the average of the highest three years of salary. By law, the starting amount of a Member's retirement annuity may not exceed 80% of his or her final salary.

 

There were 619 retired Members of Congress receiving federal pensions based fully or in part on their congressional service as of October 1, 2022. Of this number, 261 had retired under CSRS and were receiving an average annual pension of $84,504. A total of 358 Members had retired with service under FERS and were receiving an average annual pension of $45,276 in 2023
