    There's a crazy house beside the rugby club in Ballinasloe. There's about 20 of those inflatable lighted up snowmen/santy/christmasy type characters in the front garden, lights all over the house and trees, loads a stuff going on. It looks like someone got sick Christmas all over the place. The weirdest thing is that its on a quiet countryish road so everyone gets a huge shock driving past it - gonna be an accident soon i reckon with all the cars slowing down to have a gawk

    There are a few spectaculars in the south-east including a small cottage in the back road between Carrick-on-Suir and Portlaw which has made the lights a tradition going back some years. Another much bigger display can be seen on the Waterford road on the edge of Tramore where about an acre of slopping land is used.

    i was guessing how many posts it took for someone to post that :p

    That house was on the news a few days ago. The cops told the guy to take all the lights down off the house, it was causing traffic jams around the local area :rolleyes:

    A house in Newbawn in Tallaght has a life-sized manger in the front garden, which includes a massive fake plastic candle as one of those attendant upon the new-born king for some reason...
