6 runners helped St Albans Church put up their 12 foot Christmas Tree.
For the second year in a row GoodGym Bristol turned up to help turn on the lights. We (smugly) recalled all the mistakes we made last year (i.e. putting the tree up with no decorations and then realising we couldn't reach to put the star on or light up the top half) and formulated a cunning plan.
While it was supine; we put decorations on (most of them fell off), we wrapped a string of lights around the top half (most still ended up on the bottom), and we put the star on the top (it fell off when we hoisted the tree up). Undaunted, we lifted the tree into place, and using ladders, what looked like a shepherd's crook from the nativity play, and throwing arms, we got lights, decorations, and star in place for December 1st.
