my house would fit inside the trunk of one of them apparently.

for some reason the needles stick to our carpet, mum spends about an hour a year clearing them up. An with plastic one, you can keep the for many years, the real ones are just unnecessary hassle and expense.

Our old carpet would keep the needles for months no matter what we did.

Wow. Christmas memories of shredded feet.
