Digital...

No pen and ink and water...
Digital, worked from a painting of mine, to describe pictorially the hell that is next door's Christmas lights.

It is now at a ramped up rate (from last year) of flicker intensity and brightness. Then he went out leaving it on. It finally went off at 22:45.

This is at visual migraine inducing flashing intensity and frequency, and is lighting up every tree, branch, and plant in my garden, and pervades every window in my bungalow, from back, side, and front windows, to light up the inside of my bungalow.
My strategies last year with the curtains to diffuse the flashing Christmas lights, and the screening I bought for outside to go by all the worst affected windows, are not now effective. They stayed in place from last Christmas.

My side windows are within 4 metres of these invasive penetrating flashing lights. And so is my bedroom window.

The only way I could stop this giving me a severe migraine attack, last night, was to have all the lights on in every room in my bungalow.

The other bungalows have Christmas lights but they are the white ones that twinkle gently or rely on a gentle breeze for movement, and they were off at the dot of 10 pm. But not next door, he has gone for every garish colour and flicker and strobe under the sun and moon.

I normally go to bed at 8pm. I am very tired by then. But this kept me up well beyond my bedtime, and then I couldn't get to sleep. I had planned on going out today, but with not enough sleep, I cannot do that now.

Today will be setting up some blackout curtains I bought last year but never used. The door window in my bedroom is too narrow to put the black out curtains on that, because the rail is in that alcove, and there is nowhere to pull the thicker curtains back to. My bedroom would be in darkness the next month those lights are on, and I wouldn't be able to see out from my bed, to my garden, or the birds.

The blackout curtains will be set up in the front room which has a massive wide window, and then can be pulled back during the day, to let light in. This is the only room I stand a chance of making Christmas light impenetrable from the inside. And I will have to sleep on the front room couch for the next month...

The other thing to do today, is to find where I put my blackout eye mask I bought last year...

EDIT: Just looked online.
I am going up this path...
