Here's one I took on the way home.
There are two houses involved and they are at the top of City Road in Sheffield.

No it hasn't its all messed up.

It looks like there are two houses festooned in Xmas lights - surely nobody can be *that* crazy....

/coat

Will grab me camera and start prowling the neighbourhood looking for similar monstrosities for us to all point at and laugh.

These people do this every year.

If I nip across to Rotherham there is a whole street like that. You need sunglasses when you drive down it.


Here's a site with a few others.

A couple of Christmassy ones from Bangkok - apologies in advance for the picture quality - my compact isn't as easily configurable as my dSLR, and the missus gets annoyed with my frustrated rantings about how useless it is, but just another couple of tries might get me the picture I have in my minds eye.....

Actually, looking at them now they are uploaded, the image quality is reduced further, making them look horrible!

You'll notice that they're not of peoples houses either, nor are they in my neighborhood. I was just sharing rather than entering the competition.

Honest.

No, well, yeh, I like electronics and stuff, I have a tendancy to grab some idea, make it massively over complex, spend a load of money, and then it gets used once and never again.

I also have 2PA cabinets, and a power amp in my house... that was when I wanted to DJ. Now I want to do techy stuff..

Sums me up really....
