With only a few days before the advent of the Advent Season, the festive adornment of our village is beginning to pick up pace ….. The Woodman over the road has their tree illuminated already, but as of yet no sighting has been made of their nodding reindeer or swinging Yuletide bells ……
…. But, it would seem that the siting of the village Christmas tree has been changed from the green to just outside one of the rows of shops …. an unusual positioning, if we may be so bold ……. however, perhaps the reasoning for this aforementioned positioning will be revealed in the fullness of time …… Last years tree was on the green but surrounded by high metal fencing like a festive fugitive …. so if this tree is left unfettered it will be an improvement.
However ….. we cannot help but notice that this tree, though “lovely art its branches” does seem to have a slight propensity to lean to the right ……
Perhaps when it is all romantically lit up it won’t be quite so noticeable …..
Maybe not so much The Leaning Tower of Pisa as The Leaning Tree of Wolverhampton perhaps?

Maybe they should "dress the tree to the left." The left as shown in the photo.
ReplyDeletePutting heavy balls and baubles on this side will straighten it up.
All rather unfortunate.
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree, why art thou leaning?...it would be even lovelier if it was standing straight!..Dianne
