[Misc] What are your Christmas tree lights doing?

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Is that the extension you paid for

Aye. Tasteful, don't you think

Quite how my house hasn't burnt down I'm unsure.
Tree has 4 sets of assorted flashing and static lights running from a 4 gang socket.
Fireplace has 6 'scenes' of those plastic villages with lights in them. That's 2 x 4 gang that join another 4 gang that goes into the wall
Window has 4 plastic things. Another 4 gang.
Kitchen has another small tree and some wire boxes, all with lights. Yep, another 4 gang.
Outside. So there are 10 sets of lights running from two mains sockets using three 4 gang.
And if that's not enough, she lights candles in the evening.
Being a little savvy I've checked everything and put auto cut-outs on the external sockets but this place lights up at 4pm when they all come on.

That really is something you might want to look at straight away. Linking gangs in this way is a common cause of house fires and should be avoided in all circumstances.

We have a range of different settings for a range of different lights.

I have just turned off all my lights and I'm going to sit here watching this.

The ones on the tree outside are slowly fading on and off. But I am quite proud of the BHA theme.

It must get very cold in your house when you have to leave the front door open to run a lead to the Christmas tree lights......

Nah! that's just the vestibule.
