&Franklin

As a resident of Franklin road, we are required to erect Christmas lights every year. It's Franklin's chance to give something back to Auckland City. (What the fuck has Auckland given me?) So last weekend I risked life and limb and climbed up on a very suspect roof to get our house looking A grade.

After consulting the High & Mighty design team, and a few conceptual amendments, we had our final result ready for the big Dec 1st Grand opening light switch. We made it with an hour to spare. John Banks was around for his usual handshaking oppo and a few of our peers joined in the fun.

House looked alright. Pretty average iPhone snap but ya get the idea. However this Christmas light thing doesn't stop there. It's like a drug, we want to put more up here, cover that space there... I just need more feckin lights!

Aside from the parking hassles it's pretty mint having swarms of people driving and walking up and down your street. I especially like the little kids (I wonder if that sentence registers on net nanny sites) who stop and comment to their folks. Makes it all worthwhile.

So come check out our crib. But don't park in the driveway.
