I put my tree up a week before christmas, not a real one,but it's not all colour coordinated either,it has old orniments from when my mother was a child some of when I was,and stuff the children made when they were small,it's just like putting up memorys santa

My tree's like that as well Jojo, I still haven't unearthed it from wherever it was put when we moved so it'll probably go up the last week too Very Happy

We usually go and choose one from the Christmas Tree Farm at Salem, but the selection there last year was very poor and the prices upped, so we shan't be going back there. We like a fresh tree though. The kids all decorate it and I don't get a look-in. My job is taking the decorations OFF on 12th night.

Ours will be going up any night now. We were going to put the plastic tree up tonight but it looked so bl**dy awful that I chucked it in Maureen to go to my workplace as an additional addornment for there. Will buy a real tree tomorrow. That helps the economy, and after gets either burned or composted which is all good either way. Very Happy

And it's traditional.

Mind you, so is mounting burning candles on the tree. Confused

Quick, call Health and Safety...Risk assessments required!!!! Shocked
