i bought already. not one, but forty.
very small ones. they cost me about 20 pound alltogether.

in a realistic moment i realized, that the good trees, i can build for my indoors layout, will not be built before 2015. i'm not a really quick modeller.
there are just too many other things the layout needs first. (like benchwork...)
so i cecided to use some placeholders for the next couple of years.

i'll give them just some stems and plant them in foam, then they are good enough for me.

I just had to order a new one, got our prelit one down to test all the lights, left room for a wee and the dog eat some of the wire and chewed lights off it. She's supposed to have grown out of thissort of thing.

The gardening expert at where I work recommends buying the live Christmas trees as soon as they come into store ... as he said they have been cut down awhile ago and it’s better that you look after them than letting them just stand uncared for in a store.

I got all excited about these trees and their price, then I saw where you're based - so no good popping down to B&Q, then!

zorchman,
that's exactly, what i did last year. i waited to buy cheap trees after christmas. - but they were sold out.
so this year i ordered my trees early enough.


Giles,
chance is big, that you get trees from the very same factory in asia, if you buy in england.

I'm waiting for the Whos to put up their tree so I can toboggan down the mountain and steal it.
