Xmas Competition

[Fargo]

So tis the season for all the crappy xmas lights to come out.

And it seems that people insist on making the outside of there house like blackpool i'lluminations.

So i want to see the most garish, horrod yucky examples you can find..so post em up boys...

christmaslights

i know its not in the uk

[mudzs]

i think they look the dogs danglies and my kids love em :) ,is that not the point of xmas tacky lights etc. i have gone a bit overbaord with mine this year ,nothing to bad though just a ten foot father xmas on the roof and about 200 foot of lights will post a pic when i switch em on as they look very garish, horrod and damm bright :D .

[Colin P]

haha wait till some of the neighbours get them up around here then you'll be in for a treat!

already been one house fire in the area due to these lights!

i think this thread could be pretty amusing

[Dave-Ellen]

tis funny round where I live....they all try to out do each other.....

spotted 1st one last night

[Fargo]

yeh your right mudz, xmas lights area all about being tacky n stuff after all xmas is for the kids init,, but lets be honest here,, theres sticking a few lights on the outside of the house and then theres needing a sub station to run the lights.

[mudzs]

yeah i know what you mean they must put bit of a drain on the old electric bill,when i put mine up i did think :tsktsk: what have i done ,seems like i went down homebase to buy some and just got carried away (bloody kids) ,agree about the fire risk part as well never leave mine on when i go out and always turn them of before we go to bed and they all have trip switches on them

[Fargo]

best get some piccies up then Mr Mudzs...we all want to see....

[Fargo]

ok so i found all these in 3 streets of each other,, 3 of them where actually in the same street..opposite eash other.

and the best till last,, note all the little santa's lining the path.

[Bazza]

what theme !

christmas, would be apt i would have thought

[mudzs]

you will probaly find they do collections from the people looking and donate the money to charity ,there are are few people (about 70 )in a street near me that do it .the road is packed with people from 6 pm till 10 pm every day up until xmas they make thousands for the local hospice not to mention the thousands of kids who enjoy looking at them ,so it is not a case of getting a life more one of making other peoples better .

[Fargo]

bets get soem pics up of these streets..

[mudzs]

will do ,tried to take some of mine earlier but they did not come out to good ,time for a new camera me thinks

Why don't you post your pics on ChavScum. They are asking people to post pictures of Chav Christmas Lights for December instead of just Chavs.

It's quite amusing in Norwich too, just near the airport there is a line of houses, and i'm sure they must be in competition to see who can make the approaching plane crash! They are so bright you wouldn't believe it!!

Two words for ya:

BAH HUMBUG!!!!

Stu :P
