There has been much debate in the media as to the best timing for decorating the house for Christmas. It has been suggested that tree purchasing has got earlier and that nowadays we are almost two weeks in advance of yesteryear…

We bought our tree on Saturday,
much earlier than before,
a lengthy choosing process,
at Tapps Garden Store!
The journey home was interesting,
folded back seats down,
the netted tree the length of the car,
I wore the top part like a crown!
Now it’s in the sitting room,
awaiting decoration,
one of millions of indoor trees,
confusing pets across the nation!

Thanks to Tapps in Baldock, local suppliers of everything for the garden and outdoors, fantastic fireworks and even a coffee shop to rest your tired feet!
