This is basically the reassurance I was after! I ended up finding the chap I bought it from on the streets last night, asked him and he said the same thing... I imagine the lack of water may mean going this early results in a rather tired tree come christmas day, but that's fine as I won't be here then anyway...
Cheers
20+ years of real christmas trees in our house and we've only ever used a screw in stand with no water and we've never had a tree fire.
