Bah humbug indeed.

There's a guy just up the road from my place that decorates his house every year, this year his neighbours got into the act as well and the whole road glow's, the kid's love it. The only problem is the houses are opposite a rather nasty and major junction, and has caused a number of accidents in the last couple of day's.

I'll just stick with my small star in the window I think.

wonder why they call them fairy lights/

2 people killed here recently when a driver who was looking at the lights, instead of where she was going, crossed the center line and caused a head on collision.
