Default Christmas Street Lights?
Does your town/village have Christmas lights?

We have been told that the council aren't giving our little village any this year not happy about this tbh.

Our switch on was this weekend just gone, but I don't have them on my house because we think it's tacky.

(Sorry)

We have Christmas lights here. Nothing special but they are alright.

Prefer Cardiff lights though so usually go down there for a Christmas day/night of shopping and wandering around the cute Christmas market they have.
