Hey Al,
those lights legal for on-road use? 🙂
and on another topic, is that your Volvo in the background?
#2 by albell on December 19, 2013 - 8:30 pm
Not legal nor that well secured, static display only 🙂
My wife’s old Volvo. We kept it for our son but he shows no interest in it.

I just watched the video part now. If I saw that approaching in my rear view mirror I would pull over right away! Possibly you should be inventing emergency vehicle lighting systems. 🙂
Merry Christmas.

Looks nice.
You could secure it with duct tape…. won’t see it during the night….

Duct tape? Duct tape?
I never would do such a shoddy thing
🙂

I was thinking cable tie initially (white will match…) but you might be against drilling your top….. 😉

Alistair,
The pagan, secular and even (most) religious stuff is out of the way for the season.
(darn orthodox christian calendar takes xmas well into January though)
Anyway…
How was the Reindeer Standing Rib Roast this year?
I assume no duck, goose, turkey or beef for xmas but, Reindeer standing rib roast for the equinox supper?
All good things of the season be with you and yours.

No game fro Xmas dinner, I boned a turkey (raised here on the farm) and roasted that. Its a good way to go even if it is a bit of a pain to do.
Seems to be more than the usual gorging this year, some resolutions will have to be made in the new year 🙂
cheers and wishing you a happy new year.
