Once Amuseables Perta Snow Boot commits to a project, she gives it some major welly – and her Christmas decorations are no exception.

As the sole winner of her street’s annual Light Contest four years running, she’s determined to keep a firm grip on her title. Judging by the neon forest she’s recently installed in her front garden, she has nothing to worry about.

Despite her competitive nature, she does have a soft centre... for eleven months of the year. It just tends to go into hibernation the moment she sees tinsel.
