Even though it is still quite mild outside, not the crisp frosty air I was hoping for (I know, I can't believe i'm saying that either) we did manage to get into the xmas spirit of things, and went off to our local tree growers, here on the Isle of Wight. We were really happy with our tree last year in terms of shape and retaining needles. I looked it up and found that it was called a Serbian Spruce, it has weeping branches and pine cones attached, so we headed straight for those ones again…
