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

This could be like the best advent calendar EVER.

But watch out... GrinchMan will be keeping an eye on his precious sign now...

PP suggested tiny cones, Lego do them if you have any handy (although maybe not with teenagers in the house).

You need one of those tacky "parking for Santa's sleigh only!" signs tacked to the top of. You couldn't outline it in battery powered fairy lights.

This is great. Thank you for some Christmas Cheer.

Please let Santa be joined each evening by one of the Twelve Days of Christmas cohort!

The car's wonderful, but can't help feeling the "contents" could bear some improvement

How about an image of a mooning Santa, cut out and stuck inside the windscreen?

Something like this:

Best thread.
Can you get some tiny roadworks set up? With a little diversion? Or some little toy cows crossing the pavement?

GuyMartinsSideburns · 21/12/2018 14:17

This is so funny! Good work op Wink

Nquartz I know a 55yo who plays with Lego, so it's not beyond the realms of possibility.

Would it be childish to change parking to parping and scatter a few sprouts around?
