lookwhaticando Posted 22 November 2006 Posted 22 November 2006 A lot of computing time but I still got bored Each his own and all that. It's one of the few Christmas lights displays that has caught my interest. In the village I lived in over here, there was a competition each year for the best Christmas decorations on our estate (huge estate, the houses were big with lots of land, so it must have taken them forever to rate them all haha... unless they drove around, lazy gits). Anyways, there were some real classy displays and there were some OTT displays. One house had just about every colour imaginable in light-bulb form. It was a dangerously bright distraction. I'm sure there were accidents in front of his house. The best ones are those that are well thought out and subtle in a way. Oh, and they didn't put them up any earlier than the first weekend of December.

I'd probably enjoy it more as it didn't seem overly christmasy.
Daggers Posted 22 November 2006 Posted 22 November 2006 I believe I am the first FoxesTalk person to have completed all of his/her Christmas shopping...and that includes my drink smorgasboard.

Katy Posted 23 November 2006 Posted 23 November 2006 Im yet to find a decent fibre optic Christmas Tree, mine packed up last year and I can't be arse with 'dressing' normal plain Christmas trees so it's fibre optic all the way. Might have to head over to Homebase on Sunday.
Ric Flair Posted 23 November 2006 Posted 23 November 2006 I demand a brand new laptop from Jesus. If not, he can stick christmas up his arse.

Ric Flair Posted 23 November 2006 Posted 23 November 2006 I'd like to learn that water to wine trick he does too. He's a right lazy bastard, this time of year he should be out doing the rounds and getting stuff ready. Instead he fobs the world off with a fat bearded cretin to do it for him.

Manwell Pablo Posted 23 November 2006 Posted 23 November 2006 Christmas is much like Saturday. The general aim of it being to get pissed as quickly as possible. Only differnces being that I get two decent meals on Chirstmas day and no empty dissapointed feeling around 5pm.

Bottle of Cava after a skinfull the night before is always a good way to start the festivities.
