If you click through, it's 30p per night and they are all low energy. Also raising money for EACH.

Under a tenner for electric for the month...if he has got that right!

I'm just pleased that this year I have an excuse to not put anything up.

Normally I'm just considered a miserable sod but now I can be a miserable sod with a claim to some moral high ground.

I've always said I will get a tree when I am happy.

No tree again this year...I think this is my 10th year since leaving home. Zero trees.

I'm not sure about the cutting down of any tree for the sake of vanity as it is.

Also the artificial ones are a bit artificial.

So I'm going with that.

haha sounds like me

"the more you put up, the more you have to take down......"

Just put some simple lights on a hedge out the front and have a tree and a few decs. That is enough for me!

The strangest thing about that article is that he says he got the idea 3 years ago when he visited Disneyland.

How the fck did he get to 2019 without noticing all of the other houses with Christmas lights on?

It's been a thing in the UK for at least 20 years, hasn't it?

My father in law (RIP) used to shine the whole of Gainsborough up, in fact I think he started the trend - and that was when my oldest was a nipper so circa 35 years ago.

It then got out of hand and I used to chuckle when some of the houses simply never seemed to take them down, such was the job they created.

Driving the grandkids back from school yesterday it was quite nice to listen to them with their "Wows" and "Oohs" at even the most basic of displays.

No doubt Mrs Lucan will be taking them on a tour of Nacton and Gainsborough before Christmas is out.

Personally I think some of the displays are quite nice, not that it's entirely my cup of tea. I would love to have a tasteful display on my house** for the grandkids but I hate heights, in fact to be honest i would hate the whole kerfuffle but the nippers would remember it.

I'm amazed that you can't hire someone to undertake the project.
