to think that people with loads of outside crimbo decs

[worldgonemad72]

Should have at least a few indoors aswell? quite a few of our neighbours have got loads of outside flashing lights and big inflatable snowmen and santas in their gardens but hardly anything inside their houses. Whats going on? my dh thinks its a 'keeping up with the jones' type of thing

All Fur Coat and No Knickers, Eh ?

Actually, I love 'em

Look Before You Leap

especially as most of them will be fiddling the 'lecky

I love looking at them, I think they're great.

Personally, I wouldn't have them. Something tells me that I'd have to turn them off when I was out, in case of fire, so therefore the burglars know when I'm not in!

I like the idea of people being able to see a little crack in the curtain and seeing just a glimpse of someones celebrations going on inside.

Maybe they have, but the outdoor ones are shining so brightly that they are impeding your view of the indoor ones .

They want to share the Christmas-light love!

what do you mean jamie? i love outdoor dec's but prefer to decorate the inside of my house so i can see it. lol mazzy you might be right about the lecky

One swallow doesn't make a Summer

Same as Maureen, I love seeing them, and will drive certain routes just to see really good ones.
But I wouldn't want them myself.

I can imagine that by the time you've spent your sunday up a ladder and hanging out of upstairs windows, untangling cables etc - you wouldn't much fancy spending the evening balancing on a chair decorating the lounge.
