Personally, I love 'em. The more the better, it really brightens a journey spotting them. We don't have any 'cos Mr Legs has all on doing the Christmas tree but here are some for those who enjoy them too!

As the story goes, the guy who owns this house lives north of Cincinnati, Ohio .. Police were constantly being called for traffic jams and accidents in the neighbourhood so they asked him to shut it down during certain hours. Instead he started charging by car load to pay off duty police to be there. The guy is obviously a real computer GEEK and also a great decorator! SOUND ON! Click below.

Happy Christmas to you all.

    Hi Barbara,

    Thanks for your concern, I'm fine, just so busy it's hard to find time for my forum friends :roll: :D

    How's little Niamh? Jack is lovely, reaching out for things and fascinated by everything. He's coming for a sleepover on Friday whilst mummy and daddy enjoy a works Christmas do.

    I'm off to my art class fuddle this afternoon, so going to pack my bag now. :D

    Love,
    Love, Legs x

    Niamh is doing brilliant now than you, she was poorly for a couple of months...they said Asthma, but now they suspected she had whooping cough.

    You enjoy your art class...and let me know if you become famous.. :D xx
    Love

    I do love 'em but I'd hate to live in the house opposite :roll:

    Very nice Linda. I haven't seen a light show like that since Glastonbury.

    I'm glad Jack is doing well. I bet you get lots of smiles and giggles.

    Enjoy the art class. I'm really enjoying the watercolour class and will miss it over the hols.

    Hi Barbara (again), Toni, Sticky and Elizabeth.

    The Tate Gallery has nothing on my house, no wall space due to all my paintings. Glad you're enjoying your class Elizabeth. :D

    Little Jack Spratt smiles till his little nose wrinkles. I spend a lot of my time baby gazing along with Mr Legs. (Barbara I'm sorry Niamh has been poorly I bet that was a very worrying time for you all.)

    We're off to a dinner dance tonight, I'm just wondering whether I can get away with a thermal vest under my party frock :shock:

    Take care all.

    Luv,
    Love, Legs x

    I love to see them and since we have become grandparents to 6month old Mia Ella grandad has gone christmas crazy :lol: . We have decorated the lounge and dining room, front and back gardens. Grandad fetched a gorgeous real christmas tree for the front garden yesterday and then had to go running about for more lights to go on it (100 lights for a 7ft tree was never going to be enough) and I was playing ring a ring a roses putting them on, thoroughly enjoyed it though, love this grandma business.

    Have a brilliant christmas everyone and a great 2013.

    Take care Dee x

    Oh forgot to say you bought back some lovely memories of my childhood when we used to go to my grandmas every sunday for lunch and tea and, at this time of year, on our way back my brother, sisters and I used to count christmas trees (two of us counted left side, two of us counted right side) and my dad always used to go the long way home so we would have more to count. Happy times.

    Hi Toni,

    Yep my vest went on too :D

    Dinner dance was a bit of a let down as I had a yuccky tummy and didn't feel like eating which we'd already paid for :roll: DJ was rubbish too, he couldn't get his computer buttons right and so the music was a failure ......he either had a new machine or he was drunk!!!! t0305.gif :lol:

    Hope you enjoyed your lunch.

    Luv,
    Love, Legs x
