Earlier this month, Star Weekly ran a story on Brett Lockwood, who transforms his front yard into a Christmas wonderland featuring Thomas the Tank Engine, fish in a tank, LEGO displays and more every year.
Mr Lockwood said the festive display, in Aloma Avenue, Wyndham Vale, was popular with people of all ages both during the day and at night when the lights are on.
He built Thomas, who can blow bubbles and project a movie onto a screen, by hand.
Mr Lockwood first started decorating his property for Christmas 24 years ago.
He said that he enjoyed standing “behind the scenes” and hearing viewers’ opinions of the display.
“I like listening to people and hearing what they say about it,” he said.
Mr Lockwood said his family was always supportive of the Christmas exhibit.
His father-in-law Alan, who usually helps to put the display together, sadly died this year.
Alan also liked to attend the Christmas showcase wearing a hat with “Bah humbug” written on it.
This year, Mr Lockwood will be wearing a “Bah humbug” hat as a tribute to Alan.
Check out this gallery of photos featuring Mr Lockwood’s display, as captured by Star Weekly photographer Damjan Janevski, that we put together especially for this online piece.
