Hi there.

Is there anywhere in Porty selling proper Christmas trees?

Ta!

Hi Bazza, Woodwares on the High St always sell them but not sure if they have them in yet. Would think they'll definitely have them for the week-end though.

I asked in Borders fruit shop, they doing trees this year but their sister shop Wilsons in Musselburgh will have them (

Hi to Mike- he lurks here y'know )

Woodwares( aka Mica ) have trees outside today.

There's also a couple of lots appear at this time of year, one at Seafield and one in a front garden on Leith Links

Our cat has just run up the tree successfully knocking off several glass baubles and some lights.

What takes the biscuit, however, were his antics at 5 in the morning when we were woken by an almighty racket from the living room. You'd swear there was a really incompetent burglar crashing about the room. I went to investigate, only to find that a large green plastic watering can, used to water the tree, had sprouted four legs and a tail and was banging into the walls.

Sorry, sympathy too, but really

*groan*

Wish I'd thought of taping it. It was very funny, though at 5 in the morning it was hard to see the humour.

Yes that is the link and I can wholeheartedly recommend them. Lovely trees that last through the New Year, really helpful staff and a bit of help to the homeless.
