Up on Christmas eve (alright, 2 weeks earlier owing to logistics) and down on twelfth night. Anything else is Blasphemy and you will burn in the Fires of Hell.

I haven't put up a single decoration since I left home 30 years ago. I don't do Christmas. I have been been buying and eating mince pies since they've appeared in the shops though.
Love mince pies, hate Christmas.

I don't really put mine up until 1st December.
People who put there's up early and love Christmas are not annoying. It's a lovely time of year and if that's what they want then fair play.
What is FAR more annoying are the people who are DESPERATE to inform you and everyone else how much they HATE Christmas (they almost think it's as cool as not liking the England football team) and their dislike for the people who get excited about it early.
In a world where there are QUITE A FEW big issues, I just can't fathom how that would be one of the biggest annoyances to someone...and even if it is, I don't need to know.

Quite agree -Redhill saw fit to put up a damn great monstrosity yesterday. It's quite a decent tree but it is way too early. I think December 1st is quite early enough. I quite like Christmas but not when it starts so early

What difference does being in the 21st century mean other than for increased commercial purposes tradition is still tradition irrespective of the time or century
Agree Christmas is a lovely time of the year, at Christmas.....
Christmas isn't the first week of November.

Anyone got theirs up yet??
Saw my first house with decorations on as I made my way to my meeting at the Masons yesterday evening.

Last week we saw a couple of homes with the ‘full works’ up already, including Santa on the roof. In Mile Oak Road and Amberley Drive Hangleton.
We’ll put our modest decs and tree up about a week into December.

No. Although the first tub of cheese football has come and gone.
Just testing this year's batch are fit for purpose, you understand.

Here's the law, or rather as it should be:
16/12 The decs go up and 6/1 they come down, end of!
#Up16thDown6th

Ours are going up this weekend. The towns lights went up last night, I was at Wembley so I missed it but Mrs Crodo recorded it and said it was a splendid occassion.
