I have 2 bits of tinsel and a wreath that we robbed from the tavern last year so I'll put those up upon arrival in the new apt.

damn that sounds pretty miserable, or is it meant to be?

Also, have you never clicked that that's what the auz part of my username is referring to?

You're not though. Or you'd be on Aus Expats.

Plenty of narrow minded Brits as well, so you should go, you'd fit right in.

Absolutely no point telling me I'm wrong because I'm not.

I didn't realise we weren't allowed. Especially when I lived in the UK since I 93

Re: Christmas Thread

So the tree's up

Anyway, what I really want to know is this.

I live in the Greens. I have a wreath that I'd like to hang on the door.

However, anybody know what the rules/etiquette about hanging things like Christmas Wreaths on your apartment's door is?

Also, I'm just outside the elevators, so I obviously don't want it getting stolen, so I'll be making precautions.

Re: Christmas Thread

I didnt know you were in the greens fluffy.

My Christmas spirit has left me so havent put anything up yet, however I always put a wreath up and have never had it go walkies here, you have to be pretty low to be nicking a Christmas wreath!
