Christmas trees

[talkingcars]

The first christmas we were togeather we printed a picture of a xmas tree off google images and sellotaped it to mcdonalds fizzy pop cup!

I couldn't do christmas without a tree of some sort but never before the 12th.

We will be getting ours not this weekend but next, real one ofcourse. Nothing beats the smell

Always an artificial tree indoors, never want a real one indoors, as I think it is a waste killing a tree to bring it indoors, would rather look at the real trees still alive and planted somewhere. Thats why I have one planted and living in my back garden.

Hate seeing them all brown and dead in the cordened off collection areas just after christmas!

Agree with all that, we bought an ASDA one, in a pot about 5 years ago, thought it had died off but it started pushing out new buds and is still going strong.

Thats the outside lights one now.

Our bloody tree went up last sunday, fooking November! Oh well, keeps Gemma and the kids happy. I still need to put up the outside decs though. Might need to bring my work van home for that though

That's cheating!!!

You're suppose to fall off a ladder when you put the lights up, it's tradition!

I have an artificial 6 ft green Christmas tree, it just glows with white fibre optic bits, alot less hassle! Lol

We had real Christmas tree's when we were kids, love the smell, but remember Mum always with the hoover out mopping up the needles!!

It is always traditional guys that there is always one bulb that blows every year on one set of your lights, it is normally the awkward ones that you put up!!

Just got our two out of the loft, Takes a day to rebuild them, let alone put the decs on.

Make a bit of cash for Christmas with one of those.

We have a real tree, as big as possible. Normally we buy it, get home and then realise how huge it is! I get stressed standing it up and then Sarah decorates it! We'll do our once she finishes for maternity leave, most likely the weekend after next.
