God I hate people who cover the outside of their houses in Christmas lights. I’m all for festive cheer and sharing your joy but you can keep it indoors. I’d never force it onto people who might be walking past everyday. If you festoon your abode with a multi-coloured ostentatious obscenity then you’re not doing it for yourself and your children, you’re doing it to show off to strangers and out-do your neighbours. Is any address improved by having an awful over-lit nativity scene on the doorstep and an inflatable illuminated Santa in the garden?
There’s a house quite close to here that must have more lights outside it that the whole of Oxford Street. It’s a mess. They seem to have covered their house in a cargo net and then tied a million LED lights all over it.
It looks like ‘The Spirit of Over-Doing It’ sat on the roof and vomited.
