Crikey,I was trying to lift the general doom and gloom on Mumsnet.
People obviously having a rubbish evening 😳
Sorry my post has upset you all so much ..enjoy your weekend 😊

You'd need to at least show us the lights OP...

Is you neighbour Jean Michell Jarre?

LynetteScavo · 12/11/2022 08:39

Did she put her lights up herself or are there companies that out lights up for you?

I'm imagining a minor celeb jumping up and down, clapping her sheep skin mittens to gather and squealing "They make me so hapeee!"

I haven't got a famous neighbour. However I have had an infamous one. Don't suppose for one second that he's got access to Christmas lights as he's residing in one of HM hotels but would be delighted to hear that he's having a last hoorah .- good riddance . . . .

Is it Boris Becker? I bet he goes hell for leather with his Christmas lights in a normal year when he isn’t celebrating at his majesty’s pleasure.

My guess it's Stacey Solomon. Her porch decorations are...... extensive.

Plus I think this is her first Christmas married to Joe, reason to go all out.

I do like Stacey. She should have made more of her singing career.

If we are doing celeb boasts i played cards with emily blunt a few times.

Have met a few famous people (jay kay, rowan atkinson, jeremy clarkson, stirling moss, jenson button, h from steps, Patricia routledge, vanessa redgrave, patrick stewart... think that was it)

I used to work in the green room at chichester festival theatre and also waitressed at lord march's parties for festival of speed and goodwood revival. Emily blunt was juliet in romeo and juliet and between the matinee and evening show we played cards a couple of times as she was bored and i was a crap employee)

We’re not.

Of the encounters you’ve informed us of, and I can tell that they are significant to you, did any of them touch upon the subject of Christmas lights?

I bet Vanessa Redgrave goes for the full trashy works. Inflatable santas, herd of reindeer in the front garden, sleigh on the roof etc.

NooNakedJacuzziness · 12/11/2022 09:08

If requested diagram could include as accurate a sketch of said terminally ill/about to be cancelled celeb as poss so we can try to work out their identity that would be much appreciated

ChristmasCwtch · 12/11/2022 09:21

A famous actress (British not Hollywood) moved in at the end of my road. She doesn’t have any Christmas lights up. In fact we’ve never spoken, but my goal for 2023 is to be BFFs by next Christmas 👏 Then we can get the even more famous actor she snogged in her last movie over for drinks!! I’m excited about (my never going to happen) Christmas 2023 😂

I checked Instagram. It's not her

I bet Nigel Hargreaves doesnt push in the queue in the china department at Harrods.

Turtletotem · 12/11/2022 12:52

I've just been listening to Davina on the radio saying she's put her new lights up and Sara Cox was saying how lovely they are etc so I'm reckoning it's Davina

I used to live next door to Madonna…well, up the road….well, in the same village…well a few villages away…well in the next county from. We never met.

We all know Madonna's baubles have been out recently but does she have her decorations up?

Show quote history

I'm choking on coffee at this 🤣

Paperdolly · 12/11/2022 15:14

I can’t see her baubles from this county. I only live next door 🙄🤣

Which famous celebrity?

Tacky enough to be someone from towie.

They and their like are not proper celebrities.

Also I hate to tell you but your DH is having an affair with her.

Wtf, how did you work that out?

CherryRipe1 · 12/11/2022 18:31

I'm guessing Fern Britten. She loves a fairy light and her old home was lit up like an enchanting fairy grotto.
