    Jaysus! You must never get out :eek:

    I mean there are acres and acres of Xmas trees all around you out there and you're looking for someone to PM you a number so a Tree can be delivered to you?

    C'mon boy, where's the old Christmas spirit? And we need it more this year (especially after what's coming tomorrow) more than ever!

    Get out there and bring a saw.....

    I normally get them from him, but he didn't have any last year. They were hard to come by last year - ended up getting one off a guy in the back of beyond, near Charlestown.

    Not the area your looking for one in I know, but I got a lovely one last year in Tubbercurry. Just before the pedestrian crossing as you come into to tubber (from Sligo direction), there's a guy on the right. He might have a sign out, so it's bit nearer than Charlestown.

    He's back selling them again this year after being let down last year by his supplier.. picked one last week & he delivered a few minutes later, no bother.

    The stands he makes for them are class - a big round section from a tree as the base. €25 all in. Can't go wrong!

    I'd rang a guy before that who'd an ad up in the shop - he was looking for €36 for one without a stand & without delivery. When I asked him why he was charging "Dublin prices", he was very rude & told me to "go to Dublin then if you think they'll be any cheaper".

    A smooth talking salesman at his best.

    Hi I have someone asking me where to get a tree at this stage, my 50c was to go to Argos and get an artificial one , but he insists on a real one.

    House and Garden and Pearse Rd petrol station have a poor selection I am told, anyone know anywhere else in the region. Delivery not important, Thanks

    Tighes in Ballymote have some really nice trees, they are really full looking.

    He has small metal stands for them too. Not to cheap with them though. Cryans also have them but think they look ropey enough
