I FOUND A STAND!!
oh it’s gonna be a wonderful Christmas (stand box told me so)...
and the tree is now upright... time to decorate.
Still got lots of gifts to wrap, but tree is done.
We found a nice little timber tree for the office
Nice fir I cut last weekend. Will last well into January without dropping a needle. Commercial trees are cut 3-4 weeks ahead to allow for distribution time. Typically they're a fire hazard by NYE.I made a face mask Christmas Angel for my tree! It turned out better than I thought it would, especially when my Radiologist friend gave it a go for work and couldn’t get it to work.
Also... when PB saw the news article about the Koala in a Christmas tree he jokingly asked “can we have a koala in our tree too?”.
I said “sure”.
It took him a while to notice him.
I’m happy with the gift tags for this year also!
Finally got our tree up today. I think it’s on its last legs, especially after the late lamented Charlie cat attacked it on numerous occasions last year and shredded some of the branches. No matter .... Christmas lights and baubles disguise that
Looked ok for about 5 minutes, the cat and Mr 1 turned their attention to pulling some of the decorations off
No tree yet will try get one tomorrow
Front steps however..
Tree going up tomorrow
But in the mean time
MOAR LIGHTS
We’ve had a plastic tree for years but this year the local ‘Christmas Shop’ did orders for live trees.
I could not get rid of the slight lean due to the angle the main trunk was cut.
If that’s your house, Jasper, I hope you have solar panels otherwise I can imagine the electricity billTree going up tomorrow

. Looks amazing, though. Reminds me of THAT scene in ‘National Lampoons Christmas Vacation’ ..... (I lack the skills to search and embed it).
Yeah that is my house,If that’s your house, Jasper, I hope you have solar panels otherwise I can imagine the electricity bill. Looks amazing, though. Reminds me of THAT scene in ‘National Lampoons Christmas Vacation’ ..... (I lack the skills to search and embed it).
We have been doing it for many years.
Electricity is not a huge deal because they all run on 12V adapters. We find it’s not too bad
Just finished putting up our tree and some little ones I made in high school
Our little tree (found a cute shaggy one this year). Decorated by 3 out of the 4 kids.
I do my bit for the Mornington Peninsula ecology and cut down a roadside Pinus radiata sapling each year.
Much prefer an open Charlie Brown style tree to the bushy 'Aussie style' ones from the Xmas tree farms.

Thomas has derailed!
It’s starting to feel a lot like Christmas, and yes the year has flown!
We zoomed in this morning with my sister and spent a few hours putting up the tree. Still unfair that she gets to drink red wine whilst i’m on the coffee!
Yes it’s early ish but from here on weekends are precious!
Still managed to boost Bredbo’s economy this year even with shut downs, and added a few extras to the tree’s as well as the advents for the kids.
Kids added a Garland we used to use for work Christmas parties on the banister
2 out of 3 cats approve !It’s starting to feel a lot like Christmas, and yes the year has flown!

How did you guess, they are very happy although they are less impressed the untele Zac has set up the other tree with the pretty play things in the fire.
Driving through Bredbo over the past 2 weekends....we were astounded at the traffic and parking. The road from Tuggs was somewhat busy. ACT plates EVERYWHERE.
This is amazing!dino theme
This thread is a winner, our tree will be up in a few days our first Christmas with our little girl (now 5 months old...today we had family photos with all wearing matching Christmas PJs including the dog) so it'll be all systems go in our house soon...will report back in a few days
$200, wow it would want to be real and living
If seen some pretty good replica trees some are up there but man they look real
My post was last year but we went back out there yesterday and tagged the tree we chose, will go back in 2 weeks and cut it down (they start looking sad after 3 weeks). The price starts from $115 for a 6ft tree. I think ours is about 6ft. So I expect it will be near enough $115, but I guess we will find out on the way out with it
It’s not the cheap option that’s for sure.

$200 sounds about right in Sydney.
Bought from them years ago and came with a hand sized jumping Huntsman Spider!
Appear to be rather popular these days... https://www.christmastreeman.com.au/
Stopped buying lives after learning pine needles can kill your kitty cat!

My daughter has been decorating the house all day.
Just need some presents with my name on them under it.
