180cm at thrifty sounds good but not sure if we have thrify around Brisbane but have seen lots of mitre 10's...kmart only has the diddy ones about 80cm's in around here.

Haven't got to myres yet.

Want cheap and cheerfull and big.... that's what Fibre Optic Xmas Trees are all about... .

Can't put a normal xmas tree up in the sun it's just not right so I need tacky to make it seem surreal and sunny... .

Also must sort out family shot next to the BBQ for xmas cards none of this snow business...see attached.

Have urge for real xmas tree the truth be known...thinking of scowering the garden centres for a fir of some sort to dress up.

We left a 6 ft xmas tree in UK thinking they wouldn't be as into it over here.
Could get a bamboo and dress that up I supose... .

Can't even put the cards up as in rented... ha ha may hang them all up outside under the patio cover that would be different...LOL.

See attached.
