To decorate my neighbour’s new ‘no parking outside my door’ signs with a bit of tinsel?

The sign glows in the dark. It is rather large and looks awful.

Just nominated for classics.

The most adorable thing about this thread is how much your kids love it, not knowing it was you!

This thread is the Christmas present of my dreams.

Please don't tell the neighbour it was you, you can't trust anyone these days [narrows eyes suspiciously]...

OP I wish we were friends IRL!

This is fucking amazing. Cheered me right up, this has.

IHATEPeppaPig · 22/12/2018 00:47

This is absolute genius 😂

This thread is helping me keep sane in a very difficult run up to Christmas... and it's not going to be much fun afterwards either :-( xxx

If you can keep totally schtum (I never would be able to) then you should repeat a version of this every year. Sort of mental torture or gentle poking fun?

There's a statute of a bust of a bald man (should find out who) in the middle of a roundabout near me who has a Santa hat, St Patrick's day attire, etc etc at the appropriate time and it's just lovely. Somewhat different I grant you but hopefully your neighbour will see the funny side.

Don't vandalise his sign though, decorate sure, but don't deface Smile

Just like to say OP after a really rubbish and depressing week you have cheered me up no end. I haven’t smiled and chuckled so much in a long while Smile

ThorsMistress · 21/12/2018 23:42

This is brilliant! Why can't I live on your street OP? 😩

This has encouraged me to sneak out and leave some carrots for our neighbours illuminated reindeer in their front garden.

A neighbour just text me asking if I know who’s doing the weird Christmas stuff!
