Trees and toddlers

Do not mix. Enough said. This was supposed to have been decorated and installed in its traditional corner today, so that I could focus on the staircase tomorrow. Fat chance.

I am sceptical it will ever be persuaded into its corner. Seven feet tall is perfect, but this splendid beast is almost as wide and risks reaching up to the fireplace…

And the lights don’t work. Well , they did, but then they didn’t and then they blew the circuit. ( What DOES happen to them every year, carefully stored in plastic in a box in the roof ?!)

So they had to be unpeeled off the branches, and I will have to go out in quest of more tomorrow.

This is the end of Blogvember, though clearly not the end of the Christmas saga. I will try and post a photo if I ever succeed…
