put the xmas decs away
Has anyone else happily put their decs away and actually thought about how nice it will be next xmas (pref not here) and didn't class it as one of those horrible chores for the first time in years.
I can quite honestly say looking at the boxes stuffed full, and trying to put the packing tape around ready for shipping made me very happy!!!

Must say we actually threw most of ours away. Decided that if for some reason we weren't in Oz next year we would deserve some new deccies.

I know this one has come up before, but I don't think its had a mention recently...... anyone hoping to be in Oz by next Christmas, check your decorations before you put them away, and chuck out any with pine cones on them, even if the cones are sprayed.
AQIS make a habit of opening any box containing decs, and will charge you for the privilege of destroying your pine cones.
