I hate fake tree's with a vengance, for every single year of my life my mum put up this stupid fake, pretend off green thing.

You get a gorgeous smell in the house, a nice full bush (ooh errr misses ) and its real, and looks nicer.

Ahhh but mine looks better than a real, don't shed bits to stick in tot's feet and more importantly saves money so you can spend more on the important things!!

Get a real one you cheapskate :rolleyes::D


I get an 8ft-9ft real one every year only costs about £25 for a good one :j

I have a fight each year about getting a real tree. I refuse to have a tree cut down just to look pretty in my house for a couple of weeks. He says that's what they're grown for, but I don't care it still feels wrong! Got round it for a few years by bringing in a potted one from the garden but it had to stop once it got too big to get through the french doors.
What do others think?

Your not letting it fulfill its christmas destiny Then it will end up in the chipper and turned into mulch because you were mean



Awww naff, I just realised, we had some xmas trees in the front that were supposed to be minitures, but they grew, and grew :rolleyes: We ripped them out the other week because they were gonna start lifting the pavements, now I have nowt to hang my outdoor lights on :think:

Oh YUK, just remembered a couple of years ago, just after new year we kept seeing little black bits of on the floor {laminate back then} no idea what it was, then a few days later when I was cleaning up I noticed the biggest web ever - all round the top with 10000000's well almost, of tiny spiders, it got sprayed with bug killer, and dragged out in to the front garden, that was the first time I must admit, ooooooh shivers.
