ORIGINAL: lally2 but probably its because every fucking christmas tree has been sold and so my son wont have a tree to put his presents under and im feeling really really fucked off - so if i can pick away at something other than that its a welcome distraction. so thanks, im indebted to you. Lally, If you live in the U.S., and are not normally a thrift store type shopper, can I suggest that a round of goodwills, et al, might lead you to a cheap artifical tree? Yes, a cut tree is vastly superior, and makes the house smell great, but a fake one might beat the socks off of none. alternatily, if you live within driving distance of anything that can be termed 'country', do a web search and see if there is a christmas tree farm with cut your own near you, many families that cut their own have a tradition of doing it christmas eve day or the day before. And some of those farms might still have precut trees avialable, or be willing to cut one for you if you don't feel up to man handling the job. then again, if you are willing to spend some serrious bank, call around to the florists and see if they have a live tree left. Just a few suggestions to handle what I can only imagine would be a crisis of gargantuan proportions. Best of luck, and Merry Christmas. thanks , [:)] ive been trying to get a hold of a farmer friend - ill try again today. im in the UK but we do have fake trees (of course) - it would beat no tree at all, youre right normally we buy ours on christmas eve, i just cant believe we've run out. so many people have moved down here from the cities, theres not been enough to go around. and then i thought if all that fails, cos the fake ones are going to be in demand now too! - i could make something pretty with a broad spread branch off a birch tree, spray it silver with some holly and ivy and gltter and fairy lights. thanks hun xxxx
