It's at least 2 weeks too early for that sort of thing :)

They wanted £12 for a small artificial tree (and £15 for a small real one) near me.  No way I would pay that much.

Too early for me too. :)

When four of Santa's elves got sick, the trainee elves did not produce toys as fast as the regular ones, and Santa began to feel the pre-Christmas pressure.

Then Mrs. Claus told Santa that her Mother was coming to visit, which stressed Santa even more.

When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about to give birth and two others had jumped the fence and were out, Heaven knows where.

Then when he began to load the sleigh, one of the floorboards cracked, the toy bag fell to the ground and all the toys were scattered.

Frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum. When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drunk all the cider and hidden the liquor.

In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug, and it broke into hundreds of little glass pieces all over the kitchen floor.

He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all the straw off the end of the broom.

Just then the doorbell rang, and an irritated Santa marched to the door, yanked it open, and there stood a little angel with a great big Christmas tree.

The angel said very cheerfully, "Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't this a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me to stick it?"

And thus began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas tree.

9. Total guess based on the only Christmas carol in the form of a question: What Child is This?
18. Two front teeth of the saw are missing. NPR's how I made this interviewed Ross Bagdasarian Jr. (son of Alvin & the Chipmunks' creator) on today's show, so I'm guessing: All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth
20. Clear sky at midnight, so: It Came Upon a Midnight Clear

Heh, I answered the above while I was still on page 2, but deleted "the theme from 1978's The Lone Ranger's Christmas" after seeing Budvar's answer.

Back on topic, we got a nice tree, and Becky decorated it superbly! Louie (on the couch) approves:

A real tree!
Very nice.

and Becky decorated it superbly!

Better keep her around.

Louie (on the couch) approves

He is looking at the scorpion walking across the floor. ;)


The last real tree we had (~30 years ago) spawned 3,000,000 spiders.  :'(

Thanks, nice puzzle!

I'm not worried about spiders, the scorpies will get them.

This is our 16th Christmas. I suspect she's gonna hang around. I tried to show her the cartoon on page 1, but she's having none of it. Between the two of us, there's over a century of real trees. Haven't heard any screams yet.

Hi,
Unfortunately with three boisterous dogs we will have a mini tree.

But grandad may get the card board out and make a silhouette tree to put on the door with lights.

Tom.... :)
