                @pete I noticed that too after I posted it so I went out and discovered ice stuck to the back of his head. A bit of percussive maintenance sobered him up! :heehee:

                    The Teenager's 2020 wreath: Flowered Ivy stems and branches of the conifer I'm apparently allergic to, some battery wire lights and mini baubles :)

                    There's still a lot of material left so probably some more Ivy will go in to fill the bottom part.

                        For those of you who are placing Christmas lights / decorations in your garden, can you please avoid anything that has Red or Blue flashing lights together?

                        Every time I come around the corner, I think it's the police and I have a panic attack.

                        I have to brake hard, toss my vodka out the window, hide the weed, fasten my seat belt, throw my phone on the floor, turn my radio down and try and tax the car online, all while trying to drive.

                        It's just too much drama, even for Christmas.

                        Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. :thumbsup:

                            We decided not to have our big tree this year , in fact I wasn't keen to have any. Hubs came up with the idea of taking off the top section and using that only to create a small table top one for this year. Have to say I like it as it doesn't take up floor space.

                              We did that at one time with ours Upsy before we disposed of our big one and put it on the fridge ... you can see how long ago ...

                              Yours look nice and full so hopefully will cheer you.xx Ours is a bit "thin" on decorations as T'other Half didn't bring the the box of goodies down from the loft. N'er mind, have my cats to cheer me.
