Whatever happened to the 12 days of Christmas?
It’s Christmas more than it isn’t these days.

It appears so for the better-offs anyway. Lads who can spill expensive Redbreasts in November and have remote controlled Christmas trees certainly aren’t feeling the pain. You’re becoming more like Sean Quinn by the week.

Lads, relax. If people want to put up Christmas decorations to bring some cheer and joy into their lives in a time sadly devoid of it, then that’s ok too.

- The redbreast was a bottle my bro won in an auction. He already had it opened when I got home. I didn’t mean to spill it. He was seething iirc
- I didn’t buy the Christmas tree but have been assured that with the price of real ones it will pay for itself over time. What “over time” means, she is coy about.

I’ve been coerced into bringing that little elf on the shelf bollix down tomorrow. I may as well bring the whole kit down once im up there
Didn’t know Protestants had Christmas? I thought Ganesh wasnt into that kind of thing.
We’ve had the same debate and settled on the following weekend, which is a bit late, but this weekend is a bit too early for the fresh tree.
I’ve also my eye on a bit of holly we’ll go scavange with the children that morning.

A great plan to eye out something that suits your taste. Another advantage of rural living.
I sourced a beauty of a tree years ago in a small forestry beside me belonging to Helmut.
I’ve never encountered so many fuckers about as I was getting it home. I had to abandon the bushman and hatchet until the following day.

Like many, always grew up with the December 8th.
I told the Mrs to fuck it up last week as we’d enough boxes in the landing that I needed to clear. She was delighted. She’d have it up the start of November I reckon if she got her way.
We’d usually get it done early enough, December 28/29th
Decorated the tree last night. A lovely family tkme with the USA battling the Iranians in the background. This is about as late as I’ll ever be allowed put it up again. They drag that shit earlier and earlier. Fake tree. Sure think of the damage to the environment if everybody cuts down a tree every year for personal use. Besides, weve the underfloor heating and it dries out a real tree to the point of spontaneous combustion. Happy christmas fuckers.

Cheers mate. Double the price and might get caught with customs but might be the route to take.
A friend said some place in Portlaoise might have them so will call them tomorrow

I’m ringing some Laois cunt in the morning.
If they don’t have it, Bezos gets my money. I would buy off them once or twice a year. Last resort stuff. Hate the cunts.
