But the donation box is a heck of a good idea and forgives, a multitude of aesthetic sins , and whoever did it does get an "A" for effort.

Re: who's seen this house?
It is where West End Dairies used to be and is not very intusive because it is set back from the road. For goodness sake it is Christmas and people are trying to raise money for charity, maybe if you needed the help of said charities you wouldn't bother complaining!!

Re: who's seen this house?
It does look nice, and there is a lot of work gone into setting it up, not to mention cost, I bet the electricity bill costs more than they make for the charity though. Good effort!

Re: who's seen this house?
not my cup of tea, is alos a distraction that could cause a car accident IMHO.
Surely as others have said it would be more eco and better off to the charity if they just donated the money they are spending on eleccy to the charity.
