Anyway, back to the subject in hand.


In this thread Woof has identified himself as the neighbourhood Santa flaws, who thinks it's 'amusing' to drag the area's reputation into the gutter by defacing the facade of his dwelling with decorations from Poundsqueezer.


Many people will have passed these examples of poor taste and asked themselves what drives the owners to tar themselves with such a chavvy brush.


The answer is simple.


Those responsible for this American craze had blatantly poor or tight (Scottish) parents. Upon opening their gifts as children they'd find that Santa had paid them a visit on a shoe string. When they inquired as to why they'd always get a Yo Yo and a Satsuma their parents would claim that Santa must have missed them on his seasonal journey.


As adults who've been scarred by Santa apparently poor effort in delivering the goods, they feel it neccessary to illuminate their house as a homing beacon in the hope that Santa will see them and finally make good on his previous oversights and bestow the backlog of gift on them.


Don't feel sorry for them.

    • Sure - but to describe one councillor's hissy fit as a "fury" unrivalled by hell is a bit of an overstatement. Cllr Barber's attempt to hijack the moment by blaming austerity on Labour instead of the Lib Dem-Tory coalition is an amusing fumble too. It would have been better to keep quiet and enjoy the spectacle of Labour and ex-Labour councillors bickering. Labour is well-known for its ability to sustain internal catfights for years, if not decades!
    • Yes,  but as you said "at last" you had found a good reason not to vote for the greens, I wondered why you would want one. Plus it seemed (to me, at least) a very strange reason and didn't seem to have anything to do with the party's policies.
    • I also had a good experience with Andy, he was quick to respond and came out to resolve the issue at short notice. He was friendly and worked hard to find a solution to the problem with my tap which is now working like new again.
    • No, I clearly quoted you in my response; did you miss that? It’s obviously AI generated: any reasonable human being would be too ashamed to spin such arrant twadle.
