Sonning.. Xmas lights

[Edt]

I gather every year, somewhere near Sonning, there is a house with an Xmas light display like no other... is this correct? Totally covered in lights or something

Also - Upper Basildon out past Pangbourne has a competition which results in a huge display on most of the houses, including a Santas Grotto at one of the farms - complete with animatronic Santa! Take the kids there every year to look at the lights.

You're too late - The owner has an Asbo preventing him displaying more than 500 ligths (IIRC) and 4x 6 foot statues.

However...

He has a cunning plan...

It's called a snow machine, and it will be started up at 5pm on Saturday night

Poor Sod ... it was rather funny watching the locals getting p155ed off with all the traffic ... And it was a rather chavtastic display !!!

I'm sure he was doing it for charity too. Had a donation box outside. I think part of the complaint was that it was a Private Road and the neighbours didn't like that it attracted a lot of traffic. There was a police van parked outside permanently last year.

Shame!
