ok kids have been hassling me to put the xmas decorations up for ages now, well i gave in tonight, it took us ages to put them all up, i got a 6ft optic fibre tree and a 2ft optic tree so them were easy just spread the branches out and plug in, no probs, but them ones you hang from the ceiling, i dont like useing pins cos of the holes they leave behind so i got some blue tac, i wish i never bothered, one by one they have been dropping down all night since i put the kids to bed, well ive been jumping and getting frights off them every time, when i tell the kids tomorrow they will laugh their socks off at me cos they know i jump at anything Rolling Eyes

i used blue tac last year and they didnt budge Laughing

my kitchen window faces the front but i still decorate it, kids do their windows aswell and they are at the back of the house
i put the ceiling ones back up this morning but they were back down again by early afternoon so this time ive left them down, ive had enough frights Laughing

funny enough thats what ive done this year, what with all the shoping i had to do i just didnt have the energy for decorating aswell
this year i had to do it all myself for the first in so many years, with me and my partner splitting up an all, and for the first time in so many years im actually looking forward to xmas, no walking on egg shells for a change Laughing
