    wrong !!

    apparently... there are 12 days of Christmas ?? so....... if you put yours up at the beginning of December, they should be down by the 12th... yes ??

    or........ you are looking around 40 days of Christmas...... if you bin them early January !!

    The 12th night is when you take the decorations down. That is early January, because the first day of Christmas is Christmas day. So if they are only up for 12 days then we shouldn't put them up until the 25th December. Even I'm not that Bah Humbug!!

    Yeh that is too bah.
    I always feel guilty when I take the tree down ( real tree not fake) as it is always still very green (Scots pine) so I leave it in the back garden until it goes brown which is generally march time.
    If you hack up the bottom of the trunk to give it a larger surface area and put it in a bucket of water it lasts ages.
    We put a Christmas skirt round the bucket to make it look nice.
    We are not heathens.
