BLACK
« on: December 02, 2008, 12:03:26 »
I've gone over to the dark side. There I've said it! I'm glad that's out in the open, I can now walk down the street without all those knowing little glances I get.

Gone is the sparkle, the bright lights, the gaudy fairy. Xmas has now taken on a different slant altogether since I will be able to walk about barefoot without getting needles in my toes.

It is the end of an era, a start to a new life altogether. The forest trees will be safe from my axe.

I have a BLACK artificial xmas tree.


Do not mourn, all is not lost, I still have my red balls.

Back to black eh ACE? Could look classy, or just plain gothy depending on how you tart it up...... 8)
If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

Shouldn't it be upside down as well for this year?

Here's a question I've been discussing with my 15 year old....What is the colour when black is burned?

He suggested Grey/white.


Not suggesting burning your Christmas tree, Ace
I prefer my real one though.
