    So I went to the Range for some new pillows......they had only got one set....didn't want to prioritize one persons need for new pillows over the others... Then I heard a voice from above....."don't forget we have some gorgeous real Christmas trees in stock! Why not take a look!?!" Why not? I thought.....what's the worst that could happen? image phoned hubby, said I was just going to have a look......

    Hmmmmm he said.image don't come back with a tall one! As if I would!?image so I happened across a beautiful short but tubby tree! image

    Drumroll please!

    We bought a cut Nordman last week from our usual place. It is outside in a bucket  until I clear some space for it. I went to lidl today and succumbed to a three footer pot grown for £16.99 We will have it on the patio.  I've just got to venture into the attic for the decorations.

    Ours was cut down yesterday and was home and decorated within a couple of hours!

  • imageRudolph and some of his chums made an early Dec visit to us...*The tree etc doesn't emerge  (from the attic) until much, much later in the month; say low 20's >>>. Enjoy Advent to it's full anticipatory extent THEN go big for Christmastide itself is our way.

    Slum, what a gorgeous tree! I would love to be able to have one that tall but we have a low ceiling in the snug! I'm like you! Extra keen and every other job was put o hold once I'd got the tree home!

    David thats a lovely festive display! I like the idea of the gradual build up of decorations. I think my excuse for being early is I only have four days off so I'm making the most of the build up to Christmas image

    Lovely trees. I have a twig one with multi coloured lights outside since yesterday. Love it to bits. Noticed as I came up the street tonight that I seemed to have led the way this year as a few other houses had their outside lights on tonight.
