Cheers, Bruce. I did think so myself.
Just a little perturbed at how short 4m really is!

The dar household tree. Mrs. dar likes homemade ornaments, so most of the stuff on the tree was made by the darlets when they were younger.

You can't see it well in the first picture, but we have four bubble lights on the tree. Maybe it's the nostalgia, but they make me smile.

My cellphone camera blurs with the lights. I keep forgetting to get a day shot or maybe I'll try a reflecting shot off the window.

I wanted to do popcorn garland on my tree. For about five seconds. Then I remembered that I have dogs. Never mind.

Love the mini-tree, Spex!
Here is my tree, which arrived this morning courtesy of Big Sarge.

I have trimmed it with the traditional colours of pink and purple as you can see.

It's outside because it was a surprise gift, and was leading to some heated discussions as to where it could be fitted in and not be in Mum's way. My ideal solution was greeted with, "No you are NOT having it in your room!" Never mind It is directly outside the living room patio doors, so it's being fully enjoyed.

Those are specifically outdoor lights, and there is nothing on it that would be damaged by frost or snow. In lieu of presents at the food I've scattered mealworms for the birdies. I intended to hang fat balls from the branches at the back, for (of course) they proved far too heavy. I've hung them up elsewhere.

I can't wait to see the rest of the family's reaction when they come round on Boxing Day! When my Mum told my sister about the J's food parcel she charmingly said, "They're got more money than sense." My bro will be impressed anyway, and I bet the kids are.

And I am.

Oooh, I'm so tempted to mess with your mind and say yes, keep looking... but no, it was something he mentioned a few months back.
