to be honest Chris, places like homebase b+q etc had sod all new lights this year so we had to get any new ones off the internet , like eveything else it seems christmas lights are in decline, now its just a case of keeping what weve got going for as long as possible.
This might be the last year I do it, afterall I'm going to be 50 next year and I hate ladders anyway

hi Gavin,
santa is still fully employed and using his own sleigh this year ,
unfortunately his little helper was a victim of the credit crunch and made redundant so now just stands on the sidelines and waves
