mmm can just imagine - it will go from "that house on the hill with all the lights" to "don't look at that filth children"

Shit now you've got me thinking theoretically what else could be spelled on one side in rope lights, cheers. :(

Theoretically, you could write "Santa wolfbags". It would require some effort, though.

:eek:

You could possibly combine the two suggestions? It may save money. It may also get you into the local newspaper. Or some sort of register.

My God, all the electricity in my house goes off if I so much as turn washing machine and kettle on at same time.
Could explain why Italians do not really light up their houses - perhaps a tree in the garden.

I have got some solar powered fairy lights this year to decorate all the terrace.
