to think that this is quite cool actually

Yesterday I saw a car with a reindeer antler on each front corner of its roof. I am the only person to think that this is quite nice and festive or does it fall in the football flags category?

I just read your post and rolled my eyes... but then grinned... couldn't contain my inner child! Grin

TheVeryLazyLadybird · 12/12/2010 13:10

Like these?

JaxTellersOldLady · 12/12/2010 13:12

not for me, but you lot go mad!

Xmas Grin

My friend always puts a strand of tinsel around her ariel on the car. Makes me smile inside, but I dont have an ariel on mine, its built into the back windscreen.

Very cool actually. And how much cooler would it be if you stuck a red ball to the front of your car and then it would be not just an ordinary reindeer but Rudolph?

GandalfyCarawak · 12/12/2010 13:14

I saw a dog with a tinsel lead yesterday. It made me laugh out loud and people stared. Blush

SoupDragon · 12/12/2010 13:17

OMG! They're fabulous! The children would love them!

if only the bonnet were magnetic I could add my Comic Relief nose and have Rudolf...

usualsuspect · 12/12/2010 13:18

I love them Xmas Grin

undertheboredwalk · 12/12/2010 13:19

Dexterrocks · 12/12/2010 13:19

A friend of mine has them and a red nose on the front of her car. It made me smile!

seanbonbon · 12/12/2010 13:19

Anything thats makes people laugh out loud on the spot can only be a good thing these days Grin. Am seriously thinking of nicking the tinsel on the aerial idea

SoupDragon · 12/12/2010 13:20

I've ordered them from Amazon Blush

MrsChemistrySetInMyStocking · 12/12/2010 13:26

My car would look ace with them Xmas Grin

My friend has found a stock shifting site where you buy a whole mixed palette of unsold/ unwanted/ bankrupt stock. She bought a palette of mixed Christmas lighting, RRP of over £4,000. After selling off some bits she didn't want on ebay, recouping her outlay, her home is now festooned in completely naff but rather fun luminous polar bears, singing Christmas trees, light cascade curtains and dancing reindeer. What's not to like? (Ask her DH about that actually....Grin )

I shall be putting out a tasteful holly and berry ring on my front door.

SoupDragon · 12/12/2010 13:33

LOL!
Oh god, that sounds dreadful... where is it so I can drive the children past?
They'd love it Grin

MissRead · 12/12/2010 13:39

I detest football flags on cars but I saw some of these the other day and they made me smile. Not sure what the difference is but anything that brightens my day has to be a good thing :)

pastyeaterneedsaSilentNight · 12/12/2010 13:41

YANBU Love it!

huffythethreadslayer · 12/12/2010 13:44

I saw some too, but they were diy jobs, held on with sticky tape onto an old banger. Looked so funny, I chortled, out loud..then coughed and tried to hide it. YANBU.

GeorgeWHollyBush · 12/12/2010 13:45

happypiglet · 12/12/2010 13:52

Ow notsocrates what site? My kids and I love tacky Xmas stuff and that sounds ace fun (for next year maybe!)... Antlers got thumbs up this end

catfunt · 12/12/2010 13:55

I've got these Blush we saw them as we came out of school one day last week and I the dc's loved them, so when i saw them in poundland I had to buy them! my ancient car looks nice and jolly with its antlers and rudolph nose now Grin

PenelopeTitsDropped · 12/12/2010 13:58

I saw a little Scottie dog in a wee coat with a little red coat covered in Xmas stuff; and a pair of antlers attached to his collar.

It made me smile a bit. I quickly controlled myself and resumed general grumpiness.

Sparklyblue · 12/12/2010 14:04

I saw these too on a car down the road and they made me smile Smile

SoupDragon · 12/12/2010 15:10

Oooh, I'm going to check in Poundland too!

fayc84 · 12/12/2010 15:37
