Bike carrying Christmas tree

I do like real Christmas trees - they look great and smell seasonal.

But they feel a little wasteful. Luckily, after a short stint decorating our home, we could take ours to be turned into wood chips, to be used in the city's parks and open spaces.

Just as we collected our tree by bike, so we also managed to return it on two wheels. Apparently last year, 2,196 trees were recycled into 13.1 tonnes of chips. So that's actually quite green - and very precise!
