The Foxy Turns You On competition was an exciting event. The 2015 winner was Hayley Smart from St Albans winning a festive house makeover and was crowned the 'Foxy Turns You On'. It was all done to this fantastic poem Hayley submitted:
“Last year's Christmas was cheerless and murky,
Tree went bald I burnt the turkey,
Dog had a needle in his paw,
Suffered a visit from mother in law,
I was ill, I stayed in bed,
Constant vomit pounding head,
Decorations were tatty and homemade,
Moth-eaten, shabby,
Worn and frayed,
Kids were bored tried to be glad,
Even though our efforts were sad,
Money was tight so gifts were sparse,
Frankly Christmas was a pain in the...bottom,
Please Foxy help me redeem,
Make this Christmas a nicer dream.”
“When I saw the competition advertised online, I thought I could take that negative experience and turn it into something positive, which I've done. I'm so pleased to have won and Christmas is going to be great this year.”
Her house was decorated with over 5,500 Christmas lights that included LED curtains, a canopy of stalactite lights plus illuminations for the roof and garden.
Hayley also had a street party with all the residents of Green Lane. She was joined by her neighbours and friends with lots of goodies like mince pies and mulled wine for everyone.
