About
nothing for the christmas tree
“Nothing for the Christmas Tree” is a rough translation of the Swedish expression “Ingenting att hänga i julgranen” or “Nothing to hang in the Christmas Tree”. My Swedish isn’t perfect, and I prefer my version of the phrase anyway. My translations are really nothing for the Christmas tree.
Nothing for the Christmas tree perfectly describes the contents of this site. It is what it is, which really depends on what the meaning of is is. It may or may not be appropriate for a May Pole.
