You will have to see what Father Christmas brings ? :wink:

So wait patiently just like all the other Boys and Girls

Also....... you can write your question on paper, go to fire place, set alight, and let it go up chimney ?

Its worked before, I believe :roll:

The lights and decorations magically appear on the third week of Advent - Sunday 15th December this year - and fade after New Year because everyone is fed up of them. There are two themes - falling snow and the infamous smashing bulbs - although the latter does not appear on mobile devices.

They are just teasing us - I am sure the Grinch is going to make the rotten noisy lights appear before too long. :roll:

Missing logo is a Photobucket problem as they have an outage.
