Julian, you know Uncle Scrooge likes to make us wait till the last moment. After all for him it all happens on Christmas Eve, so he’s not even been visited by the ghost of Christmas Past (Peter Crespin). With the ghost of Christmas Present (Steve Hook mgcjag) waiting in the wings and the awesomely frightening Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come (Angus Moss) still a figment of lurid imagination :wow:

I feel thoroughly haunted! Something very therapeutic about smashing the bulbs :lol:

We adhere to the 12 days of Christmas rule - six days before, six days after the big day and the way it used to be. :santa:

Don’t thank me, all Julian and I did was to be the naughty boys at the back of the classroom waiting for the headmaster to turn the lights on!

Those lights are highly therapeutic, at least for me. I don't know what that says about the hooligan in me, but i sure do get a kick out of smashing them!
