The Christmas tree thread

[Andyk]

As Christmas, it means going out into the wood with an axe and coming back with an actual tree, not going up into the loft to fetch down something plastic!!!

Feck that and all the mess they make

Exactly but these days you use a chainsaw

Chainsaw is cheating! Axe is Old Skool!

I'm so glad you're not my dad, you'd be very disappointed. I don't even own an axe, or a lumberjack shirt....but at least I don't press wild flowers and have buttered scones for tea...

Cat pulled one of ours over yesterday!

And it is over again this morning, I suspect we know why!

Get rid of it then (not the tree)

Strange but true, cats don't like citrus. I've managed to stop the cats defecating in my back garden by throwing tangerine and orange rinds around the garden.

That and by booting them mid-stance....

No Xmas tree or decorations for me this year whoop whoop - wife and daughter off to Japan until Jan so the house to myself and plenty of QPV time

Yep. Clove studded oranges hung from the tree is quite good at deterring

Sparkly shot of the tree in the kitchen with a light dusting of snow out the back….

Tree up today and outside light up.

The high level lights (on the roof all year round) are starting to give up the ghost so will need replacing for next year.

But do you still dress in women's clothing and hang around in bars?

Long and thin may not win. Short and thick does the trick.

Ours gets attacked on a daily basis! By Sophia!

I'd post the video of her doing it, but you don't seem to be able to post video from your phone onto here.
