Maybe they're doing it to trigger miserable sods like you. That would be money well spent.Originally posted by Paddy View PostThey are real small Christmas trees, and the weather today is sunny 20c. The trees are paid for by the compulsory Business Development Tax that cost me an extra £2400 pa. I phoned up the council and asked why they are putting the trees up so early. They replied it is to cheer the people up with a longer Christmas season due to Covid-19.
Nobody looks any happier.

I wondered what the service truck was doing at 6am, now I know. Fixing mini Christmas trees ( I think real ones) to the shops and offices. What state will they be in by the time it gets to Christmas day?
