With IKEA promoting sales of its Christmas trees this weekend, I guess it’s time to fess up to a little festive secret.
Now, some may argue that it’s wrong in so many ways but I just can’t help buying a real Christmas tree that’s guaranteed to bring that unmistakable scent of the season of goodwill straight into the home. What’s worse, I’m fiercely picky about choosing the right one…it has to be not too tall, not too small, fairly bushy and look…well, just perfect (at least in my eyes anyway!).
Last year I left it far too late and ended up forking out for a bedraggled excuse of a tree that wasn’t worth even half of its exorbitant price tag. I can assure you that I’ll not be making that mistake again. Christmas tree sellers in West Sussex beware…fussy customer heading your way this weekend.
