Some funny idea of mine to reject the flashing lights in the windows Help stop the Greenhouse warming ect ect Over the year I collected and dried plants alliums fir cones poppy heads they were sprayed with Glitter stuff ( 'spect I have done as much damage to the ozone layer as the electrickery) going back to when I was a kid Christmas decorations were holly from the hedgerow Paperchains hand made The christmas tree was bought and each year went back into the garden About ten years ago I went back to the old family house and our Christmas tree was still at the bottom of the garden Nearly 30ft tall when I told the current house owners they were thrilled I was a little bit pleased as well  I go one step further in my attempt to fend off Global Warming... Leave the tree in the woods where growing... I don't even have to own an axe... To recap: 1. No Xmas Tree, 2. No lights needed, 3. no electricity consumed, 4. no money wasted unnecessarily, 5. I saved a tree... Gee I'm good... Now where's those whales?  edited for language...cih [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Dec 21, 2007 9:03:53 PM] |

It seems to be divine retribution a CA family went down in the woods to secure a pefect Christmas tree Low and behold a blizzard struck Two days in a culvert eating snow and huddled together the 3 idjiots were saved Pretty expensive tree A few years ago prior to my departure from full time paid employment the buzz words were save the whales I made a large poster Bugger the whales " save the Foreman " Three guesses that I was a Fore man later known as a Technical supervisor Operaqtions I dident care what they called me as long as they paid the upgradeded rate ---------------------------------------- [Edit 2 times, last edit by densnaps at Dec 21, 2007 7:11:14 PM] |

Evening all
Well, I do have a tree, a purchased one I'm afraid, but it will be recycled in January. It's still outside at the moment so (hopefully) not drying up. In this area I'm a traditionalist. The tree comes in on Christmas eve and is decorated ready for the candles to be lit on Christmas day. There it remains until twelfth night after which it goes outside again for the council to collect with its gardening recycling outfit. Now, some visits over the weekend and then peace and relaxation. |

You unfeeling beast the poor ole tree struggles through its life (very shortthat it was) you put it into a hot household enviroment make a mockery of it by girding it with ge gaws trinkets and such like . then you cast it out for the Bin men to take to the big council shrreader not only that I just read the fact you are eating some gravelad ----lax ......... some things are beyond the pale |

Morning all.
 Since yesterday evening we have a thin layer of snow over here. Yesterday was also freezing cold with nine degrees below zero. I don't think the snow will last very long though but we will see. |
