Every year hundreds of people in Sussex decorate their homes with Christmas lights.

Michael Farnes, of Amberley Drive, Hove, spends nine days in November putting lights up outside his home.

The family will switch the lights on at 5pm tomorrow and they are hoping to collect even more money for charity than last year.

The Grand Hotel in Kings Road, Brighton, also switched on their lights on Friday evening.

Matthew Berry switched on the lights surrounded by Brighton and Hove Albion players Matt Richards, Glenn Murray, Nicky Forster and Tommy Elphick.

Throughout December, The Argus is running an online competition to try to find the best Christmas lights in Sussex.

We want readers to email and text us their pictures. The photos will appear at theargus.co.uk with the best being printed in The Argus.
