- Grabska sought £649,967 (€760,383) for injuries, including £427,340 (€500,000) for past and future lost earnings.
- She said the 3 February 2017 crash caused severe pain and would prevent her working for more than five years.
- The court saw photographs of her throwing a large Christmas tree at a charity event.
- Judge Carmel Stewart dismissed the case, finding her post-crash activities inconsistent with the medical evidence she provided.
It is a very large, natural Christmas tree and it is being thrown by her in a very agile movement. I’m afraid I cannot but conclude the claims were entirely exaggerated. On that basis, I propose to dismiss the claim.— Judge Carmel Stewart, Irish High Court in Limerick; reported by the Irish Independent

- Birmingham’s Treecycling 2024 scheme is scheduled for January 14 and 15, and people in specified B postcodes can have trees collected and recycled for a donation to Birmingham Hospice.
- The Twelve Days of Christmas run from December 25 to January 5, so many people remove their tree on the evening of January 5 or on Epiphany the following day.
- Candlemas falls on February 2, and English Heritage keeps decorations up until then in its historic houses.
- Dr Michael Carter of English Heritage calls the idea that leaving decorations up after Twelfth Night or Epiphany brings bad luck a modern invention that may derive from a medieval belief about goblins after Candlemas Eve.
Contrary to popular belief, the Christmas season continues right through to Candlemas so there's no real reason why you should take your decorations down earlier. The tradition that it is bad luck to keep decorations up after Twelfth Night and the Epiphany is a modern invention, although it may derive from the medieval notion that decorations left up after Candlemas Eve would become possessed by goblins.— Dr Michael Carter, Senior Properties Historian, English Heritage
