In order to obtain true enlightenment, one must deny oneself the ultimate pleasure.

Went out and filmed the local christmas lights display, for a small town, they put on a pretty decent show.

Looks better than Blackheath already from the thumbnail.

Where's the guestbook at?

I don't think Blackheath ever does put up much for Christmas.

That evening on BBC1 is depressing :lol:

What the hell is The Wheel?

EDIT: oh no, it's that gooseberry fool Michael strawberry floating Macintyre thing isn't it? :dread:

Yeesh... That's a... selection. Love how the BBC just casually drop The Vicar of Dibley right at the end there. The only good thing you could put on, and it's right at the end of the day.

Oh, they used to. Big massive tree on the roundabout, full of decorations and also on every street lamp. Every year for the last five (or more), the quality has slowly gone down the drain.

late night shopping up the high street tonight, music, lights, over priced food that doesn't taste good yet I get it every year. I miss the stall that sold ribs. one year, and that was that.

Thats explains that then, I haven't been in two years and it looked pretty drab with the Christmas stuff whenever I went then!

This is even worse than i'd imagined, it's beyond gooseberry fool, it's like the sort of super gooseberry fool you sometimes see on the pavement where something has had some pretty severe stomach ache beforehand.

Wouldn't be Christmas without Jimmy Saville.

Just get steaming and put Jingle All the Way on, that’s my plan.
