Yesterday Marjolein, Sander and me wanted to buy a christmastree. We didn't have the car because Albert had to go to work. So we took our bikes and went to the garden-centre, selected this beautiful tree with roots and delivered it to one of the guys to wrap it in a net.
And this is how it normally goes: you pay for your tree and drive your car around the back to the drive-in they made there, where one of the guys gets your tree and puts it in your trunk. So can you imagine their faces when I biked up there and told them to put the tree on the carrier? I think I made their day...
Several guys came to help and although they were convinced the tree was way to heavy to take by bike, they put it on my carrier and secured it to my back with my scarf. And there I went and although I made a lot of people laugh out loud, I did make it home without any problems! I think next year I will ask them not to wrap the tree but instead put some lights in it ;0)
