My wife likes to put the tree up around December 1st, so I imagine it will go up next weekend.
We like to take the kids up north and cut our own tree. I just like the smell and look of a real tree better than a fake one.
The problem is that for the past couple of years I have been away on business at the start of December so I miss out on the annual slaying of the tree (as my son and I call it). I will be thinking of their slog through the snow as I slog through the crowds of shoppers on Singapore's Orchard Road...
