Ho ho ho there, readers! ‘Tis officially the season to be jolly and, with most of us getting ready to decorate our homes for the christmas season, The Arcade is doing some redecorating of our own as well.
So I thought it’d be nice to give a subtle reminder of what’s in store when you finally put up the tinsel and root out the tree from the attic.
The Christmas Spirit
Ah, finally! You spent all of November complaining that people were claiming it’s Christmas already, but now the Toy Show is over, it’s officially December and you can start to be merry… or at least pretend to.
You’ve made a mess
Yeah… maybe I was a bit too enthusiastic when I was taking out all those baubles… Sweeping brush?
The lights are tangled!
Oh dammit! Well that’s fine, I banked enough time for this. I’m sure it’ll only take a few minutes!
Three Hours Later…
Okay, they’re finally straight. Just put them up, do the tinsel and… wait…
Colour Scheme
I said we should do it silver and blue not red and gold!
Argument Ensues
Okay… My creative vision is ruined! Let’s just split the tree into your half and mine and start decorating already!
Are you done with your side?
Great! Now if we just turn it into this corner, your red ornaments will look really great facing the wall!
Finishing Touch
How do we get the star on top? …Wait, no! What are you doing!? Timber!
It’s finally over!
Now, just pray the pets don’t ruin all your hard work! 
There you have it! You’ve spent your day off decorating a fake tree that you will have to dismantle and store again in 3 weeks. Happy holidays folks!
