Only just got our tree up today though it has been sitting in the shed a while. Couldn't find the time as we had houseguests for a week in the lead up to Christmas so further behind than normal on everything. I'd say get a tree even though it's late, anakin. And keep it up until 12th night so you you'll get almost 3 weeks of pleasure before it comes down.

Thanks ejwrank. We just went to get one, but they were out of the size we wanted :( They had one that was just a bit sorry looking. Going to try somewhere else, though they said they may get more later today. May just not be supposed to be :( I have however, hung some fairy lights in the corridor which look so cute! Am hoping to run into the little boy from upstairs to show him, as it's really rather Christmassy!

About to go and do our Christmas food shop. GROAN.

I was looking forward to our M&S voucher we normally get 25 but instead some bright spark thought they'd order us all a box of chocs from Hotel Chocolate, much as I like chocolate the voucher would have been much more welcome right now!

I'd love a p*y rise too!
Preferred Cinema's now Paignton or Exeter!
