Hi to all and Early Seasons Greeting,

So to all you budding Lord Litchfield's and David Baileys here your chance to shine were running with an idea we had early this year too late for last Christmas. So what were after is Christmas photo of the lights and decoration from your local town or area, and / or shopping centre or mall. If your local town doesn't have a display and the town down the road does then that's fine. If you have one of the shopping centre that is festive then that will do too, just email your photo to Mallosa and tell us where it is in the world, weather its Dudley or Sydney, Canada or Korea bring in a touch of festive season. You Never know someone could be viewing that cannot get out and about to see such decoration or live in a place where such displays are not affordable or even worse there not allowed to celebrate the festive seasons.

So Let Get Them Camera Clicking

Great idea Pete, well done you! (take no notice of 'you know who')

I'll get something set up in the Gallery for 'Christmas around the World' and then.................................

we'll sit back and wait, eh?

That's it! All set up in the Gallery now... go to 'Photo Gallery' on the home page, and scroll down to 'General'

I wonder who will be the first to send in or upload a photo from their area

We don't get in the Christmas spirit here till after 5th December.
That's after "pakjes avond" and the Sint (St. Nikolaas) goes home to Spain with his Black Peters on his steam boat.
So it'll be next week before i can send photos in and you know i like to be first!!

It's not really a race Rob, so whenever will do

I agree with Mally - I think part of the point is for us to all find out how Christmas is viewed in other places and that will include timings!

You can always aim "to be first" for your country if that gives you the challenge you want!
