Well this will be my first Christmas in my new diggs and so I’m having to buy everything a fresh.

I have decided that it will definatly be a real Christmas tree for this year, what happenes next year may be different but my first is to be done right.

However I find that sorting out Christmas decorations isn’t quite as easy as I thought it would be. Firstly the colour scheme! I immediatly thought silver and blue would be a nice combination but the traditionalist with in me is on my case to go down the red and gold path.

I’ve spent most of the weekend looking at decorations, and some of the tat you can get now :s

I will definatly not be having any inflatable anywhere near my house!! And I don’t think I will be going to the trouble of some to decorate the exterior of the house as much as I might like it, time will not allow :)

Still I have another week to make up my mind but then even deciding real or not for your tree isn’t enough, there are about 6 different types all going up in price for something that will be rotting in bins around the country come 2nd of January…
