no lights required.
1. pour flammable liquid into the slots in the aluminium base
2. ignite
3. retire to a safer distance
4. watch mesmerised as the symbol is consumed


ps. Branches hanging down? Risks scratches on paintwork and can be be a Health and Safety nightmare in the workplace.

I'm setting a new trend!........actually the base will need more axe action......going to fit the tree with an Audi wheel. Wheel AND tyre combo is too much I think.
