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

Just cut my hand pretty badly fitting this bauble in but think we can agree it was totally worthwhile

Is there a very ill or disabled person in the house, OP? Just trying to work out if he’s overstepping or in desperation. really really hope OP says no 🤞🏻

No, definitely not disabled, rants to me about how unfair everyone is as I smile and nod. I am very dull and therefore beyond suspicion

Oh no. Who can be first to say "invisible disability"?

I’d remove the sign. And plonk the tinsel in its place. People can’t just make up their own laws at others’ expense. Cheeky as fuck.

Santa has parked, I feel alive! You’ve made me realise I’ve been thinking about this too short term, think elf might have to appear tomorrow

My favourite thread of the day!

All the suggestions are brilliant. Esp your photo, the Santa park here sign and fairy lights.

Do them, do them, do them!

Sorry that I'm too sad to come out with better ideas to add.

But I have to know, OP! Did you glue it down?

Report
AnneTwackie · 20/12/2018 21:19

It’s got glue on it but I couldn’t stand holding it because of all the stealth so don’t know if it will stick

I really like your miniature parking ticket and wheelclamp.
If the sign is still there next week, can you put a sleigh and reindeer on Christmas eve?
