I am watching the Christmas Repair Shop. They are repairing a Christmas Tree that is exactly like my "first" Christmas tree.

I thought it was made from feathers, but they think it is hair. She is going to find some ethically-resourced feathers to fill in some gaps at the top.

They think it was one of the first Christmas trees after the War. That would be the Great War, not the Second, do you think?

It was given to me by someone who was downsizing to a sheltered flat. She had bought the Tree after the birth of her first, might have been only, child. Sadly the child died very young. The lady wanted the tree to go to a good home. I still have all the very small decorations that suited such a small tree.

I think that about ten years later, I passed it on to someone who wanted a Vintage Tree.

I think I may have overdone Christmas dinner yesterday - other than a couple of satsumas last night and forcing myself to have a couple of slices of toast before this afternoon's bike ride, I didn't feel like eating until tea time this evening. Not even chocolate :ohmy:
