Are we abnormal

We put our tree up about halfway through November. Chrissy is a big thing at our place.

I am sure that if my wife had her way, it would be the 12 weeks of Christmas, not the 12 days.

We have a live one in a pot, so I like to bring it in two or three days before Christmas. I don't like to stress it out too much.
Here's a pic of it from a previous year.

The real tree, even though in a pot, would need a couple of feet off the top to get into the house. And a trolley to move it.

It will be the fibre optic one sitting on a corner table again this year.

My poor wife Kee put our Christmas tree up yesterday and decorated the whole house, It looks great.

She put all the Christmas lights around the tree and tested it out with all working perfectly.

Now you know what happens next, Kee waits until dark to show me the lights AND nothing happens, it's a blown bulb.

I'm cracking up because I can see the shades of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation with Chevy Chase coming through and Kee was not impressed.

There's only 50 to check
