Phase 2 Completed

Bought the tree at our local supplier who does a free tree for some folks. Got to phase 2 which is trimming the bottom so it fits the base. Locating into the base and checking for straightness... Much better to do this part before unwrapping the monster in the living room. It's now located, Dyson (used to call those Hoovers, eh?) at the ready and armed with some trimmings to address that bare look...

Phase 3...
...Is whatever you want it to be... Chill stage for me, (kids...)
