I told the kids we should get a tall one as the ceiling is almost nine feet. Thy took no notice of me. Just as well perhaps as this bastard cost £72 and I imagine a taller one would be more.

The kids decorated it, that's why it looks like it was decorated by a child.

Only one this year, in the kitchen. Roped in my nephew to help out. He's a good lad. :thumbup:

This is last year's tree, that I overwintered in the garden and then dragged back in through the window earlier today :thumbup:

There was a minor interval mid-decoration as Muz flew his new hideously expensive drone into a tree and we had to mount a rescue mission :roll:

Be nice. It's Christmas. (Nearly).

One of our token gestures towards Xmas joviality!
I'm all for peace and goodwill etc, but I don't see where perfume or a £1500 phone or getting into debt fits into the whole picture!

No tree here nor will there be.

1 - I'm allergic to real xmas trees
2 - I'm too skint to buy one
4 - I''m not religous
3 - Even if i did have the money i don't like buying useless festive tat.

I don't have any xmas tat about the house ever, don't even own a piece of tinsel, i'm not scrouge though - i shall embrace the festive cheer i just don't really get involved in decorations.
