Celeb neighbour has put up amazing lights

[Christmasamtryigtogetexcited]

I live very close to a famous celebrity and she has had the most amazing lights put up today ! They are fabulous and she told my husband this evening that they make her happy ..good for her ! Anyone else going to have their last hoorah this year ?

Google tells me that Louise Pentland is a non exec director at Hitachi (no problem with batteries for as many lights as she wants) So you may be right!

Mumsnet, unbelievably"

Nigel Hargreaves probably. Although he is now a famous celebrity-courtesy of this thread.

My dog had her vaccinations last week from our ITV celebrity vet.

I've never thought to ask!

Do you mean are people going to buck the trend and do Christmas lights? We only put a nice double string up so as long as it doesn’t push bills much higher, we’ll definitely do it this year too!

I really hope Nigel Hargreaves finds this thread.....

Cringe

Kirsty Allsop?

I wonder if Nigel will put lights up in his dental practice. I think he should really.

Now that Nigel Hargreaves is a bona fide celebrity, which TV programmes do you think he'll be popping up on? I can't wait to see him on celebrity Mastermind. Specialist subject: sticky hats.

I think if you just explain what the last hoorah meant and why it is 'good for her' people could relate more.

Ferne McCancelled

Proper laughed at that 😂

He could do one of those toothpaste adverts where we get to see what toothpaste real life dentists use.

I know how to keep my heart, hips and bum healthy but how do I keep my mouth healthy, Nigel? How?!

He's been dead for years. Was on TOTP 1993 on Friday evening.

But he had a lovely set of lights each year

Just like the Blackpool illuminations

👏🏻 I love reading brilliant posts like this!!

😂

😂😂 this has won the internet for me today

@Christmasamtryigtogetexcited thank you so much for this thread. I'm pissing myself 😂😂

Is it Arthur Mullard..........?? 😀

I live next door but three to a very famous model from yesteryear. You'd definitely definitely recognise her name. The family often eat in our local pub, but she never eats more than a starter. Tall and willowy and beautiful, she is.
But probably always very jealous of my fish and chips and mushy peas as she swishes by with her Louis Vuitton shoulder bag and her pretty ordinary looking husband.
I'm equally jealous of her figure so it's all fair enough. I wish I had her self discipline. And her money! (I live 3 doors down but my house is not of equal value, so not a stealth wealth boast)

Still, she behaves quite ordinarily and keeps herself to herself unless conversation is invited. It's weird when you live near someone who is actually quite famous but you see them trotting about the village being just normal, because that's what they are. Just normal.

She has no Xmas lights up yet, but then I don't think she has a terminal illness.
No call yet for a last hurrah. If I was going to have a last hurrah it would be to drink loads of Champagne and Calvados and eat Onion Bhajees and North Indian Garlic Chicken Curry. The amount I could demolish would be enough to wipe out an England Rugby player. So, cause and effect really.

It's obviously Peter Kay

Yes, they do liver
