    Family tradition that we all have to be there to choose it. There's a tour of all the local garden centres but we always end up at the same one every year. Guess who ends up paying for an oversized, overpriced monster that I have to cut up to get it into the house. Can't wait to get it though!

    i've got several million growing in the forest right behind my house, going to chop one down on the weekend.......probably break my neck doing it as there's about two foot of snow on the ground out there & it's on the side of a steep mountain, but it's the thought that counts..

    If she got charged for delivery AND collection then I'd say she's been done. Either that or she's just trying to fiddle her exes.
