Show us your Christmas tree....


Recommended Posts

😂😂 how dare you have all this hilarity in my absence. Wonder why Orraloon is so happy , someone must have finally invited him for Christmas dinner. 
Just as well you managed to negotiate an increase in emoticons @fringo else I would have used up a daily supply on one page.

To paraphrase Tidy, I think those cables to the tree could be an "Elf and Safety hazard".

😂😂 I never even noticed them.
Its like a picture from those elf and safety compliance modules at work. 
‘SPOT ALL THE HIDDEN DANGERS !!!’ 

The wee toys and the rug are potential trip hazards too 😁

After careful consideration i arranged a risk assessment and sought elf and safety advice and have been advised to remove the danger or i will be banned from putting a tree up next year.🤢

And/or have to all wear hard hats and luminous, high viz, vests around the Christmas tree.

And bend your knees to lift the box of decorations NOT YOUR BACK !

Flash back. I got grounded for using my mums metal coat hangers to make this. Simon Groome has a lot to answer for.

Could of been worse you could have used wooden ones 🔥

Christmas tree and decorations are now down ☹️ I always hate this time of year but it is even worse this year with Covid and this Brexit shit.

Only consolation is a much smaller credit card bill than normal as I was able to pay cash for some presents from the money I had saved doing heehaw for 9 months.

And as if life isnt depressing enough I have just purchased one of these for my bad back. Just the pillow, unfortunately the legs dont come with it. 

Roll on spring.

Same, tree came down yesterday, back to work tomorrow and the weather is no longer festive it's just cold.

December we usually have 3 wee trips away but obviously all hit on the head. Hardly spent any money at all 😊

I have been drinking every night for about 2 weeks as there is so little to do. I will get the shock of my life tomorrow night when I am back on the wagon. Well, on the wagon until Thursday that is 😁

I am quite enjoying this cold dry weather but there are only so many walks you can do. It’s no the same when the pub isnt at the end of them .

Hopefully you will be able to get some trips away in a few months, before Mrs B blows all the dosh on a jacuzzi for the garden 😁

Tree was down on the 27th I think it was. 
 

Xmas was over, no need for it, had my 30something birthday to celebrate instead of Xmas 😂

27th ? Wtf kind of tradition is that ? I can understand it if it was yer weans birthday but 30 something? Mr Tidy would be buried in a hole in the garden with the tree planted on top  of him if he took the tree down before New Year . 
What did you get , a new fitba to match your trainers ? 😁

Nope, I got more trainers and a jumper to go with them 😀

Anyway, the tree doesn’t have any purpose after Xmas, we can’t even be arsed putting the lights on. I need to buy a plug that my speaker will switch them on for this year, save a bit of effort.
