Four of us arrived, four of us conquered, four of us spent much longer than anticipated to take down Christmas decorations.

You'd think that taking down decorations would be a quick job, however.... with Christmas trees, lots of ceiling tinsel with sellotape to remove and lights to pack away it certainly took us much longer than the hour planned.

This didn't worry us but did present us with a unexpected challenge. We removed the lights from two of the trees but the three tree was much more complex. With twists and turns around each and every branch it certainly took a while. Unfortunately it was only when half of the lights were removed did Helen point out that these trees come with lights already attached which didn't need removing... aaah!

But we had started, so we must finish. 45 minutes later and a tangled mess on the floor we slowly detangled the lights until ahhhahhha! It was done. Yay result. At least now this will make the job in December much easier for the next person....
