so we decorated the house and tree today... went to the garden centre to buy a tree only to realise that all but one had been stolen, so we ended up buying the tree that wasn't even good enough to steal. Its ok now its covered in ribbons and beads (put on to create an illusion that the tree is more semetrical than it obviously is) WHO WOULD STEAL CHRISTMAS TREES!! and if you were going to steal them, it would be more profitable to steal artificial ones!
However i do feel like I've done a good festive deed as i have rescued the tree from loneliness and isolation (i feel like phoebe from 'Friends' when she wants to save all the dead christmas trees from the 'chipper' because they haven't 'fulfilled their christmas destiny') i think the christmas tree looks very pretty now.
we had the annual family argument over how the lights should be placed on the tree ..."Harry its not even"..."I'm doing my best"..."father , father , father your knocking off the ball balls"...."harry your doing it wrong"..."I'm doing it the way i want to do it" ..."your ways wrong! "...."father the ball balls" ...."i don't care about the ball bloody BALLS!!" etc etc... then after mince pies we all were happy again and the festivities commenced.
