Christmas - The Aftermath...

Chilling scenes in a popular Glasgow park earlier today. 

In what authorities have described as "Christmas tree recycling" the public have been urged to take their unwanted Christmas trees to a "reprocessing point." The site of this tree based horror is a car park in one of Glasgow's largest public parks, where the abandoned trees will be chipped and shredded and scattered in the area. Trees across the globe have sent messages of support to the their pine cousins in the UK. Trees based in the rainforests of South America, who have sadly lost a large part of their population in the last fifty years, have encouraged them to fight back by shedding their needles onto carpets in homes and cars across the country and by pricking those who try to dispose of them in this manner. 


At the same time as this Christmas tree killing spree many have also fallen victim to bad weather over the last month with several trees being uprooted during the hurricane force winds. I urge you to spare a thought for those trees left standing this January it will be a bleak start to the year for those who are pining for their lost forest friends.
