Each year people around the world decorate their houses and flats with Christmas decorations, some look tacky, some look stylish and some just look plain odd.

If you have put in a lot of effort to your decorations this year then let us know.

We are looking for residents who have gone the extra mile with their Christmas decorations and are willing to send in pictures for the readers to see and get inspiration from.

Whether it is something as simple as sticking some legs out of the chimney or something as extreme as covering the entire house in coloured lights we want to see your pictures and hear your stories.

So if the festive period has plucked your heart strings and you have gone all National Lampoon’s Christmas Vaction then let us know at hmiller@london.newsquest.co.uk Please put your name, street and a little bit of information about your decorations and we will feature the best and worst of the borough.
