therealhantsram Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 If you go drinking in Derby this weekend, beware the marauding Christmas Tree in the Market Place... A wide area of fencing - described by the council as an exclusion zone - has been placed around the undecorated tree in Derby's Market Place. Derby City Council said the barriers were there to "enable people to view the tree at a safe distance". http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-derbyshire-42180763 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearl Ram Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Look at them leaves on the ground though, you’d have thought they would have given it a spruce up for the occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilkleyram Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Is it straight, or do I have to hold my phone at an angle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I assume you have to view it at a distance, because a close up view would confirm it's a s**** tree with no decs or lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sith Happens Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Why did they need to use barriers? Surely the tree would have come with its own cones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
