Am I a wanker...

271 replies

... to buy poundland tinsel and trimmings?

I've just ordered the first 24 (of maybe 100 I have planned) baubles and have got quite nicey ones.

Theme wise I'm going traditional coca cola advert red white and gold...

So ramblings aside, would I be a wanker to get as much tinsel (and possibly shiny glittery beads on a string) from poundland??

Should I invest more to make it perfect for DD?

DD chose some very gaudy fetching pink and purple tat for our tree last year from Wilkos. It looked like a Barbie doll had puked on it. And really, isn't that the true meaning of Christmas?

MissBeehiving · 24/09/2013 20:00

TessTackle · 24/09/2013 20:00

IamChristmas · 24/09/2013 20:02

I had better remember to name change back or am gonna look a right nobber if I post on any other threads. I am also enjoying this thread a LOT :)

HoneyDragon · 24/09/2013 20:02

I've got lots of naice things.

TessTackle · 24/09/2013 20:02

I want squirrels! I can already see my plans for a theme going right out the window.

I'm going to make it as fucking horrendous colourful as possible and take loads of photos for you Cunts.

I don't know if you're a wanker or not, but your use of swears could do with improvement.

You're confusing wanker with tightarse. In this instance, they are pretty much opposites.

TessTackle · 24/09/2013 20:03

HoneyDragon go to poundland. You cunt.

I hate tinsel and will not have it in the house. But I would certainly buy cheap baubles (and lots of them). And I think children really do appreciate decorations.

We have moved house since we bought our baubles and the colours do not match our new sitting room. It has been troubling me whether I need to update. Wish i had just got gold or silver. Will probably stick with my reds and blues though.

TessTackle · 24/09/2013 20:04

Wanker is infact, one of my universal swears MorrisZapp

Thanks for the tip though Wink

PILs insist on buying us these adorable wooden mementoes from all their holidays to hang on our tree.

LOvely, and all, but slightly hidden by the lopsided plastic handmade shit accoutrements my babies create for us.

HoneyDragon · 24/09/2013 20:05

What's the wanky name for that stuff we think is tinsel but isn't? We argue about it every year on here so you think I'd remember by now.

BOF · 24/09/2013 20:06

Lametta?

bymoonlight · 24/09/2013 20:06

Not in the Christmas topic people! Shock

MissBeehiving · 24/09/2013 20:06

Are they sparkly Usual?

I don't know what wrong with my sense of humour but this thread made me laugh as much as the duck thread in classics (which is quite a high bar)

Iamchristmas please don't change you name, stalk the 'don't talk about Christmas until the 24th dec' lot
