Getting the artificial tree back in the loft

Posts: 11,117 Forumite


Don't know why I haven't thought of it before, but this year instead of the usual struggle to get the tree in its box out of the loft, then the even more difficult struggle for me to lift it up so OH can drag it back up, tonight I just lifted the 3 separate sections of tree up, OH grabbed them and refilled the box that remained in the loft throughout. Easy peasy.

I like the google images of trees left fully decorated wrapped in clingfilm and put up in the loft for the following year! This saving time next uear too!
The kids were not impressed with that idea though so i had to take them all down the normal way and put them all in the loft by myself.... grumps!Mortgage started August 2020 £69,700
