As always - thanks for the new festive thread.
We don't put up our tree or decorations until Christmas Eve - but to show willing please find enclosed some apposite tax carried forward from previous years.

So much good news at the end of the last thread. Here’s an impossibly glamorous Christmas tree and its inspiration.

I am going to be a tax avoider. The cat who is my usual one to pay cat tax is hiding every time I visit its place of residence.

Nadolig llawen i chi gyd (a Blwyddyn newydd dda hefyd)
Tax in the form of ‘spot the Perdy being naughty under the tree’. She has no chance with Santa.

My contribution to homemade Christmas decorations. I try! It's the heart, not the partridge.

Someone else who does this. I fear the plumbers may have thought Christmas had passed this house by when they came yesterday.

My Christmas cake.

Mine’s just absorbing its last ‘feed’. I’ll decorate it at the weekend.

Jólakötturinn is a huge and vicious cat from Icelandic Christmas folklore that is said to eat Reform supporters and then vomit them up in a giant hairball.

Heck, its name will take about a minute to say - it would stun them by sheer bewilderment, beforehand 😅

No Christmas tree here due to cats, our decorations hang from fairy lights strung zigzag on the ceiling. Very pleased about Erasmus.

I went to Iceland just before Christmas a few years ago and their Christmas traditions are…interesting. They’ve been up there on their own 8n the dark for too long I reckon!
Had a fab time. Beautiful country and lovely people.

PickAChew really beautiful decorations & Biwi a fabulous Christmas cake.
Really good news with the reinstatement of Erasmus.

SerendipityJane · 17/12/2025 12:07

Tax with added interest in two ways. (a) it's a video and (b) these are big cats 😀

I defy anyone not to emerge slightly more relaxed than before.
