Christmas Eve is when we do ours. That's the day I used to buy them but it appears I'm on my own there. They've probably all sold out already, but if you wait you can get a big ugly mis-shapen one for a fiver. (Hmm reminds me of Lumb Lane in Bradford, that).

Fake one came out the attic today for erection tomorrow when I'm out trail building. Bought it last year when we saw the price of real ones, will have paid for itself this year. That said I'm trail building in the middle of a pine forest aand there maybe the odd 7ft tree in the way.....

Hmmm, maybe we could all find one "in the way"? 😉

On second thoughts, there isn't actually room for one in my flat, so I won't bother.

I'll have to dig ours up again in a couple of weeks, I reckon it'll be going to the tip after this year though as it's getting a bit big

We'll be getting the tree out of the attic and putting it up tomorrow. Followed by three weeks of mayhem as we try to extract the [s]malignant little sh***[/s] cats from tree, lights, tinsel....

No tree here. My birthday is in December and there's no way I'm letting people in my house celebrate Jesus's before I have mine. Humbug.
