Rate your Christmas Tree 2025

Right, it’s the time of year to get ready for the end of the year. I bought tree about 4/5years ago from Sainsbury’s on their death row after Christmas for about £3. It was potted and I felt sorry for it so we brought it home, repotted it and later replanted it in the garden. Yesterday I dug it up repotted and brought it inside. After Christmas it will go back outside and live another year. I know it’s not the best looking and maybe it’s a bit skinny for some but it’s the right height and width for our modest house. Also try buying a potted tree that height, a 4foot potted tree is about £70.

Shopping at Ruxley Manor, and wooden blinds at the back of the house. I’m sure you can afford a monster tree…….5

If Rate my Plate is the standard setter, I am expecting great things from this thread.1

That tree looks a bit like Charlton at the moment... Has tried its best, but something is clearly going wrong there!!0

My wife's handy work on the other hand, and her efforts to transport us back to the 90s with the Christmas decorations this year.

AFKA: 8 (for the journey)FA: 8 (what are the weird things sticking out the tree near the top?)
Here's mine, it's a Christmas basil plant. I'm going for a Rancho De La Luna vibe.

Isn’t it too early to put up the Christmas tree and decorations?0

Yes, it is. Before 1st December is punishable by a custodial sentence and before 14th December is a fixed penalty fine.Solidgone said:Isn’t it too early to put up the Christmas tree and decorations?2 -
Lived in our house for fifty years now, first year no Christmas tree as we are away for Christmas and then flying to Auckland 1st January, so we decided not to bother lugging it down from the loft, then heaving it back up on Boxing Day. Must admit to being slightly disappointed but with no visitor expected over the Christmas period it really does makes sense.0
