Oh yeah, retro is so in at the moment! I think it's great that you have something that pleases you and is also a family memento. Did you take any pictures? It sounds worth seeing!

I think there is definitely a child/childless thing here - I don't have children either (and I'm now 48 and I have had a hysterectomy!), so some things about Christmas seem definitely inappropriate!

It was my mother too who kept the Christmas thing going - I'm afraid I broke her heart the year I said let's not bother. I knew not to say that again, but I think she always remembered and held it against me. The first Christmas after she died I couldn't face putting up her (extra-large) plastic green "Norwegian Pine" without her but I couldn't leave it in the cupboard either, so I gave it away to charity - let someone else enjoy it as much as she did, I thought ... now my niece is upset that we don't have it anymore! It is so difficult to please oneself and other people too!
