Seasonal Extremes

There are always those who try to out do others at Christmas, usually in giving extravagant presents, or in the level of decorations outside their houses.

Xmas House Decoration - Giant Santa - Big As A House
Giant Santa - Big As A House

I took this picture near where I live, and where Christmas house decoration has been getting decidedly competitive in recent years. I think this monster Santa was the easy winner.

However, equally, there are those who may not be trying hard at all.

Edinburgh Terror Santa
Terror Santa ....

I took this picture of a Santa who has definitely gone to the Bad Santa side of the force, and who is used to advertise a Christmas tree sale yard in the centre of Edinburgh. Christmas certainly can be an odd time of the year.

Happy New Year 2019
