Cheers I know what you mean, I've always had fake trees, but putting up this one was much more of an event, the room smells like Christmas tree as well which is great

We went the other way this year. Up until now we always had a real fir, in fact for a few years we had the same tree in a tub which we kept on the patio through the year and brought it in at Chrimbo. This tree eventually succumbed to some kind of blight and had to be ditched. We got the one in the pic due to the price of real trees this year and a last minute rush to prepare for Xmas. I think her indoors may well go for a real one again next year judging from the grumbling I could hear as she put this one up!

Here is our tree, lovingly decorated with some nice home made touches here & there. Needless to say this was all my wife's work (although I did put the stand together for her!)

I've had to look at this rather depressing effort in our office over the last couple of weeks:

Still at least it's a Christmas image for the purposes of this compo

the tree in the front room at the inlaws, with one of my daughters presants to the left that i need to wrap

The presents under the tree got moved somewhere safe after a little someone started opening them early

Sorry been a wee bit buisy but entries have been updated - and i dont care what people think 2 days to get a cpu@100% load max at 47 and a wc 480 at 885 core 99% load max at 37 degrees has been well worth it :rolleyes:

Wherever you are whatever your doing have a great Christmas Eve and an Epic Christmas Day - and for those out on the lash if your not in bed by 11pm go home !!

Giskard2k · 24 Dec 2011 at 23:45

What can I say TTB 11.40 & here I am thanking you for your excellent contribution to the team & wishing everyone loads of festive cheer....(too many numbers in that last sentence for a Christmas Eve, so will digest that lot on Boxing Day :-D

)

Have a great Christmas everybody...

lopkinfop · 25 Dec 2011 at 19:16

my vote is for dekez and his triffid tree

ToxicTBag · 26 Dec 2011 at 01:33

The bonus ball tonight was 27 Mr adwol would have won it had he remembered to post a pic so that gives us a bit of room to maneouvre.

I reckon its down to one of these 3 for the most festive photo

Help me decide its too close to call :confused:

Christmas for me is round the inlaws this year, and with that comes a mad tree....

It's the top of a tree from their garden, it was a metre or so higher but we had to chop the top off as the ceiling was too low! lol

First time I've ever had a real tree

Dekez and the super weird upside down tree thing its awesome.

derv · 26 Dec 2011 at 09:08

Nice to see I got in the final three!

My vote is also for Dekez, that tree is insane

hanluc · 26 Dec 2011 at 09:31

My vote's for Dekez too, that 60" plasma just in shot is dwarfed by that huge tree going through his ceiling

TheTross · 26 Dec 2011 at 12:17

I'm voting for dekez as well, although t'other two are also excellent examples

Chasser · 26 Dec 2011 at 15:11

I'd go for dekez as well, just so random with the decs and looks like the top of the tree was hacked off to make it fit in.

Giskard2k · 26 Dec 2011 at 17:57

My wife is made up that we made the top 3, thats the first tree we bought when we got together 15 years ago & she loves it to bits
Was trying to get one of our cats to pose all nice & cute, but training cats is an almost impossibillity.
What can I say, I am a sucker for cute cats & Kids so I would have to go with Derv....
