You really do need to sort out the whole car business! Have a very happy Christmas. Hope your tree looks great - fibre optic wouldn't touch it and your children certainly will not remember it. Having said, that after a lifetime of real ones, they sort of merge into one another in an not very memorable way.

How terrible Wifey!! I wish you ALL a very good xmas and so on. Take great care and remember you are in my prayers at least.

Farmers... what a lovely breed.

I've told you before, Wifey, you guys need a Range Rover. You know it makes sense!

Hope your tree is doing better than ours. We bought it on Saturday, did all the necessary anti-needle drop procedure, but most of them are on the carpet already. Grrrr.

Of course, depending on the type of tree, it could also be: Neighbours spruce themselves up after death crash.

Or: Big crowd gather fir tragic send off.

Sorry again!

What about: "Bereaved relatives pine for missing dad."

Pine, get it?

Sorry!

A moment of madness there. Fibre optic could definitely be the better option.

Well, at least the kids REALLY do have something to remember in future. Dya remember when we chopped the tree down in the forest and Dad nearly got squashed on the A1. And to echo what debio said... trees down South cost £40 for a 6-footer. You got a bargain with suspense and mystery thrown in for free.

Beautiful, baby, just beautiful.

A merry, happy, peaceful.......hmmmm.but ever so slightly bonkers Christmas , at least from the viewpoint of those of us who have so enjoyed sharing in that wonderful creative brain of yours.A huge metaphorical candle lit in hope some divine/ drunken inspiration will occur re the big decision.Enjoy the littlies on behalf of those of us who wish we could have those times again.Keep chatting up your guardian angels.they've done a great job in taking care of you.

2007-12-20T10:41:00.000Z

Sorry to dwell on detail, WITN, but how come the tree cost only 15GBP?

I am astounded, amazed. The last tree I bought in the UK was about 40GBP!

Almost worth moving up North??

2007-12-20T10:19:00.000Z

You go through all that - you have a great big hero of a farmer in a 4X4 pull up to rescue you - and all you can say is "Next year I'm going fibre-optic"!

Where's your Christmas spirit, Wifey? Where's your sense of romance come to that?

That sort of thing would never, but simply NEVER happen on the North Circular you know!

A scary Christmas story, but with a happy ending. You just mustn't break down in traffic like that! I assume he made it home safely and that he is now snuggled warmly beside you in bed. Merry Christmas, hope the tree is beautiful!

crikey. glad all are well. i still get freaked by the signs up and down that bit of the A1 informing me how many people have been killed on that particular stretch of the road over the past however long...
