[Misc] Real or fake?

[Cheeky Monkey]

Had hoped to go for a real tree this year but they're all too BIG. Anyone seen anyone Worthing way selling more modestly proportioned specimens (eg about 3ft wide and 4ft and a bit tall)?

Not for everyone, but B&Q do a decent selection. Not having a car, I cycled home one-handed with a netted six footer under my other arm, the metal stand (which cost a lot more than the tree) hanging off the elbow. #GloryDays

Real - first Christmas in our first owned house so we got a bit excited - will be back to a decent fake next year. It just felt like something we should do - can't beat the smell of a real tree

Went up the first weekend of December (The wifes idea not mine)

Christmas TREES are for CAPITALISTS and I just have a WINTERVAL plant which is GENDER non specific instead

Faieries are non gender specific too

Designer, classic, timeless, only way to go.

I always DRESS up as a TRANS gender ELF so not to cause A FENCE

We have had real trees but found out that they have a mould which is an asthma trigger and with two, albeit mild, sufferers, we've gone for a fake. Spent a bit as it will last a few years. Doesn't look too bad.

Real. I have some 'Associates' who provide the tree. They turned up this year and said 'it might be a bit big'. I put it in the stand, cut the netting off and it was like a scene from National Lampoons Christmas Vacation.

Trying to get my head round that curtain pole arrangement , when I spotted a lad giving you the finger through the window

One of each.

Real tree in the lounge, and a fake in the kitchen / diner. Best of both worlds

No tree or decorations. Can't be bothered.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Can't understand why anyone wants a dead tree indoors, dropping needles everywhere especially where you walk with bare feet.

Ouch!!!

Decoration free zone here.

Chainsawed off the bottom few inches this afternoon in preparation for bringing the tree in....these artificial ones are tough

You have started me off again Lamie, I'm laughing at the curtains and the lad in the window again.
They must be the most pointless curtains I've seen in my life.

How many more i's and e's do you want to add to the word fairy?

You're a braver man than most if you're dissing Mrs Hiney's curtains.

Curtains are actually alright to be fair, it's the pole Or poles.

Like Jordon, a pair of fakes (one bigger than the other).

Seriously, chopping down a tree, sticking it in the living room for a bit, then burning it, strikes me as a tad frivolous.
