The CHRISTMAS Thread!

ouhhhh!!! A Christmas thread!!! I was looking for one! There should definitely be a section dedicated to Christmas!!! It is such a great time of the year.

99% of the shopping done: all hidden in a pile at the back of my wardrobe and also in places i do hope Mr Mongola does not (usually) look!
 
Where in North Dublin are real Christmas trees being sold?

Hopefully Woodies in Glasnevin have them again. Anywhere else?
 
Anyone been out for "refreshments" yet? I have an epic one this weekend and am feeling decidedly nervous....can't wait though!
