Getting festive, even with a very low IQ - with thanks to B&Q...

For some weird reason, I was feeling a bit festive this week, so I decided to invest in a Christmas tree from my local DIY store. Those helpful chaps at B&Q sold me a cute little 2ft high tree and I rushed home to get busy with the tinsel and baubles...

Imagine my surprise when I opened the instruction leaflet! After all, this mini fir was ready assembled, standing in its own base, and didn't even come in a box, so it was pretty obvious what I needed to do with it... and I think I would have noticed if I'd left the store without the single part (Ref. A on the below)?!

The decorating tips were a godsend though!

Thanks B&Q for giving me a festive chuckle while I was decking the halls of the Davison household this year!

    What no picture of the tree decorated so we can assess how well you'd done against instructions?

    Sorry Michael - I forgot to take a photo, and now the tree's all packed away until next year (following the packing and storage instructions on p.2 of course!). I think it looked good, but not sure if I fluffed the branches correctly...
