Well I usually like to put up quite a few Christmas lights every year ..... but what is the protocol this year with the price of energy and the Ukraine war, and cost of living ..... is it still OK to put up outside Christmas lights?

Just make sure you have modern LED high efficiency lights. They cost peanuts to run.

LED. Lights run about 10¢ an hour. So you get great value out of them. Over a month of Christmas lights,it's apparently ballpark €20 for the lights for the month for average household.
