      Rather short and limp and tired looking, barely lights up. Tried to insert a fairy but no luck there either.

        My wife is not well enough to erect mine anymore, and I can't be bothered. Her friend comes over for the weekend usually to help. She'll be here the weekend of 13th Dec to get mine up.

          Got an advent calendar with 24 windows. I am going to knock one out every day.

            Don't bother. I do stick some lights around the front room though.

              Will this be at home, in the morning, or is it on your desk at work?

                No, it was on the plan but I spent the day trying to fix my washing machine instead. It's fixed now but I've no idea why because all I did take the things to bits and put it back together after finding no obvious faulty parts.

                The only new decoration I've got this year is one of those indoor projectors that projects onto your window. I bought it for for Halloween (zombies clawing at blinds with groaning sound effects). The projector also has a Christmas mode of Santa waving, laughing and jiggling his belly about.

                    Bah.

                    Humbug.

                    I switch on the minefield on the roof to see if I can get that Santa fella and have some nice reindeer steaks for Xmas lunch.
