Houses in our county are festooned with acres of cable and millions of twinkling lights. Garages and gables groan under the weight of glow-in-the-dark Santa & sleighs.  | Another view of the house on Wigton Road, Carlisle |
This house, on Wigton Road in Carlisle, is very nearly a landmark in the Christmas season. Eddie and Iris Wilding have been decorating their house for the past eight years. The collection has grown and grown during that time -the first decoration was a Santa's sleigh that sits on the garage roof. They love seeing the hundreds of people that stop each year to have a closer look. Iris has never yet told Eddie how much it costs them - she hides the electricity bill from him! So, your house or one in your neighbourhood might not be quite as bonkers, but we'd still like to see a photo! Watch Eddie and Iris in Video Nation
