WOW
NEVER join forums just to make a point, but WOW!
I've just seen your request for Ghetto Blasters on Freegle and followed the links through. Ok, initially I thought..."Oh dear, a Christmas light show on a Stafford house", but I suppose (sadly) that's the typical way today - judging a book before seeing its cover and all that. I have spent a time in the US where everything is BIG and over the top but I have to say, where we can never top them (yet) on lights and gizmos (without re-mortgaging the house anyway!); I never saw anything over there even close to what you've achieved - to quote the yanks, "Awesome"! (I often tell my little ones off for overusing that expresion!).
I (again sadly) expected a few rope lights and twinkly tree lights set to a tinny version of JIngle Bells, etc but WOW! The show and music was simply jaw dropping - hence my mail.
We had similar for Halloween and, while setting everything up (stirring witch, flying ghosts, moving grave keeper, Gregorian chant, etc - all homemade) had a number of cars and people stop asking if we took donations. We didn't as it was only for a party we had for the kids and local neighbours. Maybe next year we'll take your lead and example.
Fantastic work and just what communities need. Unfortunately I dont have a GB but will be monitoring this from now on and will help in any way I can (just wondering how I can change the animatronics above from scary to Christmas!) you could have them in the front garden, If I come up with anything, I'll let you know.
An example to us all, well done.
