I go for the 5th January.
Re: LIGHTS IN THE SKY 2013
I would tend to agree with you, Wendy. If Christmas Day was the first night that baby Jesus spent on earth.

Re: LIGHTS IN THE SKY 2013
That was my thinking. So the switch off should be this coming weekend.

Re: LIGHTS IN THE SKY 2013
I usually put my decorations up a week before Christmas, and take them down a week after, so mine came down yesterday.
I know I'm in my own little world, but it's OK... they know me here.
Re: LIGHTS IN THE SKY 2013
Does that mean your house is undecorated at Christmas or do you delegate the job?

This is the extent of the decoration

Re: LIGHTS IN THE SKY 2013
Sensible attitude! My own view is that I have nothing against others decorating at Xmas, it's just that I don't see the point if there are no kids in the house. It was always done with them in mind......

Nice one, Kev. Is it the Nordic equivalent of Alexa, waiting for your next command?

Re: LIGHTS IN THE SKY 2013
I see that Xmas lights and trees have started disappearing from the Town Centre, mainly Town Square at the moment.

Re: LIGHTS IN THE SKY 2013
I've only now registered the `2013' in the title of this topic. Perhaps we need a 2020 version next Christmas?

Re: LIGHTS IN THE SKY 2013
One thing I forgot to mention. Can you remember me noting that what seemed to be a helium balloon covered with flashing LEDs was caught in the branches of a tree on the Green opposite Montrose Terrace? It's still there flashing even though all the other lights are off. I wonder how long the battery will last? Could it be solar powered? I shall keep an eye on it!

Re: LIGHTS IN THE SKY 2013
It's a credit to whoever made it! I had a look on the web for them and they usually quote a battery life of about two days. This one has smashed that barrier!
Still lit this morning.

Re: LIGHTS IN THE SKY 2013
The Balloon is still lit and I see there are others in the same trees but they have gone out. Must be about a dozen of them! Council or private enterprise?

Re: LIGHTS IN THE SKY 2013
They were put there by the town council, they're not balloons...
