Just for Show It's time

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

for Christmas and the boss has ordered me to get a tree. As a humble man who believes in father Christopher, I do as I am told, but I do not go far, as others I have seen here do. When you are humble, there is a tendancy of getting down on your knees at times. Well here I am at it yesterday and as everyone who cares to cast a glance at it, shall see that the weather was rather greyish.
Timber....


After sore arms, cold knees and short of breath, it finally came down.



and this morning it was back to normal........again!

Good post and amusing Ivar, especially the ending. I'd have picked that other tree far better balance of branches

 

[Brian Moore]

That other one is very balanced, as Julian points out. I think you picked the wrong one Ivar!

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

Ivar you need to go back and get the other one

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

Now how can you lot tell. You only see half of it. My pick of tree has been aplauded by my boss so there. I shall possibly have to take a picture of it just to show how elegant it is. I just have to get some old film.

Ivar two of can see we have our glasses on. If the boss gets to know there was a better one , only you know the outcome, I wont tell though

What a view you have created. Imagine that, just cutting down a tree, and a whole bridge and river appears. Amazing.

Ignore those two idiots. You chose the best tree to show off the decorations!

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

Thank you Julian, a friend in need. I think I'll have to pay a visit to an optician or maybe the Cornish one and the Californian need it more than me.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

You definitely need glasses - my name is Rob

Thank you Robert, I know your name, but I had to answer the shortsighted ones. Amazing that they did not discover the view that appeared.

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

With my short-sightedness I would have only seen the other tree as it is bigger and easier to see

 

[Brian Moore]

What bridge...?

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

What bridge...?

Well what did I say Blind as a bat.

I wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and I wish that Santa shall come around with new stronger spectables for you or enough whiskey so you can forget all about it. As a matter of fact, that goes for Brian too. Merry Chreessmust, I've started on the the famous Norwegian Acuavit, strong and good and helps anyone with digesting all the fatty food.

Excellent stuff again Ivar. So, where's the photo of the decorated version?!
