Going to buy the Christmas Tree

Don't have to travel far-enterprising farming family have developed their buildings and have coffee shop, playbarn, paddock etc http://www.hoodles.co.uk
and sell Christmas Trees in December. This year they also have two reindeer in the barn and Santa was visiting this week end - though he must have been having a coffee break when we popped in!

Looks like fun-

I shopped locally for my tree too- but my place didn't have reindeer or Santa. Just a really helpful lad named Tyler. Fun collage!

Oh the reindeer are gorgeous. They are quite young and were so busy eating their hay that they didn't pay any attention to us! I think once the tree is up I will be in the Christmas spirit but our angel seems very low this year!!! A few years ago we used to get Laura's very tall friend Pete in to put her on the top. This year's tree is a shorter bushy variety....
but it will be fine!!!!

Interesting! Are the reindeer visiting from the Cairngorm herd?

[Sarah Bremner]

@jmj Not sure Jenny. At least they will be well looked after at the farm! and a lot more acceptable than the Ellon camels http://www.aberdeenshire.gov.uk/news/release.asp?newsID=2300
which have caused a bit of a fuss in this area!!!
