some may like them, but i think they look silly are they running out of ideas?

I think that they were hung upside down originally, I read that in dd's christmas traditions book! I'll find it later and make sure i'm right

I agree they do look stupid though

I think they look a bit sinister - like an upside-down cross. The anti-christmas tree.

we started selling them (at JL) last year- they were ridiculous, not very safe (the one instore was bolted to the ground, but you can't do that at home!), and i think we sold in our branch about 1- and it was faulty.

This year, we are selling one again, but it can be used right way up, too.

What is the point?? Between that and the £1500 each fibre glass reindeer, i think our buyers have gone nuts!

Saw the upside down tree in JL today. Do not understand it at all. Looks daft.

I saw the giant reindeers too - I cant imagine how many people would buy them at £1500 each!

I might just order 2 to go outside my front door!

agree - don't like the upside down tree's either

i saw this is a catalogue, and i said to teen dd " wtf? gravity dictates that the baubles whould still hang the right way up...i don't get it"
" no, mum, no you don't do you" [rolls eyes]

so i am no wiser - apart from the implication that i am too old
