10 – “I will just wait here until Santa comes, and then….BOOM! I will pounce.”
TIP: Once inside the house try and position your Christmas tree away from any heat sources or cold spots such as radiators, open fires or cold draughty vents or windows! The heat will dry out your tree faster and sudden cold spurts will make the trees open pours close up!

TIP: Remember to keep the Christmas tree topped up with water. They can drink an incredible 2-3 pints (1-2 litres) of water each and everyday! And yes they will need it Christmas day as well even though you will have very little spare time.

7 – ”If you don’t think I should be in here, write your opinions down & send them to Santa.”

6 – “Me?!? In the Christmas tree again?!? No, I wouldn’t do that!”
TIP: Place your tree in plain water! No soil, sand or anything else which might block the pores in the bark. This is best done by just using a stand and a bucket of water directly under the main trunk.

5 – “Ohh! So, so pretty. Must touch, taste, DESTROY!”
TRY: Try not to expose the tree to sudden changes in temperature by placing it into a warm room from outside straight away. Try to leave the house as cold as possible before bringing it inside.

4 – ”I am the spirit of Christmas and I am here to tell you the dog has been naughty!”
TIP: Just before you take the Christmas tree in the house you should saw off the bottom of the trunk! The reason is it creates a fresh cut and opens up the pores in the bark which will enable the tree to drink making it much, much stronger.

TIP: I know from first hand experience that you want your tree to be the centrepiece of any festive arrangement. But consider placing the tree out of sight of any windows or main doors. This time of year thousands of homes are broken into just for the trees let alone the presents!
