Symbol of friendship










The 60th annual Christmas gift of a massive Norwegian spruce for London's Trafalgar Square is on the way, and this year's ceremony aims to guarantee the tradition endures.
Schoolchildren attending the felling ceremony rush to count the rings and check the age of this year's tree.
The three is one hundred years old and 26 meters (85.3 feet) high.
The annual Christmas tree for downtown London is Oslo's tribute to the help extended to Norway by the English during the Second World War. This is the 60th time a Norwegian spruce will grace the city.
