I used to hate it when my mum used to say you can put the tree up and I'd route to the bottom of the xmas tree box and find a big knot of xmas lights :rofl: used to take a fullday untangling them then you find out only one colour flashes :rofl:

get the 'rice lights'

they don't have replaceable bulbs, but the set carries on working even if a few bulbs die

& they seem to last for years
