My has no needles I grumbled that it was £15 and I hadn't had it a week till my husband said 'well phone the blinking garden centre then' so i did and they were lovely and i'm picking up a brand new 8ft one tomorrow . Why do I have such a fear of complaining? So tonight I have to take all my trimmings down and get to do it all again tomorrow!
Happy Xmas to you all and thanks for all the fun and interesting conversations I've had this year!

Lucky devil, getting to decorate the tree twice.
I expect you've already heard of this one, but a good way of getting the kids to bed tomorrow night is to show them how close Santa is to arriving http://www.noradsanta.org/en/default.php
I'm actually watching the site at the moment, waiting for Santa to set off from the North Pole..........13 minutes to go.

Hello All
Well the continuing saga off the tree! The one they gave me was beautiful but about 9 foot high and cos I only had the other one in a tiny little bucket it was totally inadequate for this one. its fallen over three times and is now wedged into a huge recycling box with about 20 bricks. i've put all the tinsel and stuff on again and no one is allowed near it!
Artificial next year I think
Off to make chocolate now.
Festive wishes to one and all

Funny the s are causing so much troule, isn't it ? Hubby didn't put ours up, saying nobody was interested anyway, and we'd rather skip christmas alltogether - just because our small son has gone to see his friend and exchange s with him, and because I said there was no need to move the table, it has been in its place last year without getting in the way of the . Now hubby's in a bad mood - I don't understand it.

Hey Chorlton, our tree is wedged in a recycling box with a bunch of bricks too!
Just checked NORAD - is currently in Cairo, Egypt......I remember when I was about 8 years old in America watching tv - the local news came on, and the news readers said that was entering the area, so all the kids had to go to bed........I ran into the room where my parents and relatives were and told them that I HAD to go to bed immediately! My Mum has never seen me go to bed so early on xmas eve!
Merry Christmas everybody!
