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

Blatant place mark Grin

Without outing yourself, can you take a further away picture so that we can see how tiny the car is?

ChristmaspArti · 21/12/2018 13:24

Tinsel on the sign tonight, and a toy reindeer glued to it tomorrow!

silverliningsa · 21/12/2018 13:24

Haha that's amazing!! What will you do
tonight?

I second getting a "santa please stop here" sign and putting it right beside his

RavenMaven · 21/12/2018 13:22

Tonight you need to glue a Grinch figure to the sign, pointing to the words on it

^Please please please do this! Grin

Love this thread! Can't wait to find out what happens next.

Hope your neighbour went inside and had a secret chuckle ...

Please tell me you have CCTV so we can see neighbours reaction.

Frozenteatowel · 21/12/2018 13:18

This is excellent. It’s like Elf On The Shelf but so much better. This could just run and run.

Omg! I'd say tell your teenagers that it was you but they'd probably tell everyone and then you'd be caught!

This is fabulous on an epic level! You MUST have plans for tonight... and keep ramping it up to a big event on Xmas eve! LOL! Love it! :-)

DobbinsVeil · 21/12/2018 13:11

Brilliant!
Are you planning a Christmas Eve Special,l involving the Big Man, his sleigh and reindeeers? Hope your neighbour doesn't rush out and get CCTV!

PositivelyPERF · 21/12/2018 13:05

I am secretly mint! That’s hilarious. I’ll bet if they saw you doing it, they would have said, “mum, you’re so embarrassing. Don’t! That’s lame!” But you’re mint because they don’t know it’s you. Brilliant. 🤣

Philomensapie · 21/12/2018 13:05

You need to go out to laugh, point and take photos too, otherwise you’ll arouse suspicion!
