Hi

*German accent*
Frank iz gone, Amour enterz ze pub .

Welcome .

Looking forward to Christmas?

Can anyone tell me where the German pub is?

I don't know if there is any..

Oh, I'm looking forward to many things. Christmas is just one of them.

And what do I want for Christmas? Me very own Fighting Machine . Without the Martian .

Bucket, you can start your own Pub if you like. But I don't know whether it will survive or not.

I'm listening Christmas music. Think I'll decorate the house tomorrow.

Aren't you a little too early with that? I mean, the fifth of december has yet to come and you already want to decorate the house with Christmas-stuff?

Feel free to do so, but I will not decorate my room until a week before Christmas or so .

We don't celebrate 'Sinterklaas' so I don't really see the problem.

But still it is way too early in my opinion. Even the stores have begun selling Christmas-stuff, while the Sinterklaas-stuff is still present.
And it isn't even december yet .

Anyway, my parents already have a christmas tree . It is the same one as last year. They simply put it in a flowerpot with some dirt and it survived through the entire year, so that it can be used again.
Cheap , because no new tree has to be bought.

We've got a plastic one, it's in a box. Otherwise you'll get all those needles throughout the room.. And the lights are integrated.

And it'll survive forever.

A fake christmas tree ruins Christmas in the house . A real tree spreads that delicious odour, and those needles can be cleaned up easily with the help of a vacuum cleaner .
We never have a fake tree in the living room, always a real one .

Ik dacht dat dit topic verwijderd was

@Moon:
Well, it appears to me that this pub still exists .

*delete*

I thought this topic was removed

@Luna: this is an English pub you know

That would be a very foul deed .

@V: I feel the same but my parants find this one convenient. A real one is prettier.

@Amour:
Parents

You know what I don't understand? My mother does not want Christmas garlands (slingers) in the tree, only the Christmas balls etc. But a long time ago, we always had those garlands in the tree. Why me mom suddenly decided to ban them from the tree?

And the colour is always silver. Silver balls, silver decorations, silver peak. We once had red and silver together in the same tree..

Vailan: fire hazard my friend, fire hazard!

Until 2006, we always had garlands in the tree. And it never went wrong.

prevention?

Vailan: ever heard of the Transition (overgang maar dan letterlijk vertaald)

@jackjanjanus: you could say menopause.

Whatever, garlands belong in a Christmastree .

But the MOST important aspect of a Christmas tree, is the fact that there are countless of gifts underneath it
