	We have a big Parish Church near us, that has a graveyard around it. From December they sell christmas trees from there. Does a roaring trade. Went past there this morning, hundred of trees on the grass, and people buying them. Much too early for me.

	Oh yes, making pom-poms. Two pieces of cardboard, and winding the wool around it. Tying it off when cut, before the whole lots fell out the middle. :-D :-D

	14th December is early enough for me. Remember letting the kiddlie-winkles dress the tree, then waiting until they were asleep then taking it all off, and doing it properly. :-D :-D
