Was still up when I left for work this morning.
Hoping that it will be down, together with cards, holly etc. by the time I'm home!

The tree is about 7 feet but very broad. There's no obvious place to put the thing and we make this mistake every year - the tree always looks "not too big" until we get it into the house, and the least bad place to put it is alongside the sofa on which I tend to spend most of my time.
We're also not big TV people, nor BIG TV people. We only have one in the house, and it's a relatively modest by modern standards 40" (I think).
That picture could be deceptive as I cannot judge perspective. The TV could be enormous but very far away or if could be that you are hiding in the tree whilst taking the picture.
Could you place something in the mid ground to assist with depth of field. Something with known dimensions like, oh I don't know, a picture of Hiney dressed as the Pope?
Took it down yesterday

One in the lounge came down yesterday, the one in the conservatory will come down tonight.
Given that baubles are about 2” diameter, I estimate [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION]’s TV to be an 8” model.
All my decs down today [emoji108]

Like I said the perspective issue needs resolving before we can definitively say how big Bozzas telly is. Bozza might have baubles the size of beach balls for all we know.

He wishes.
Back on topic: mine came down yesterday. I like a fresh start once New Year is done.

Mrs Crodo's work Xmas do isn't until this Friday so she's insisting it stays up until after that otherwise ours would have been down yesterday. There's no more sickening sight than the ultimate depression of the first day back at work in January and all the decorations are still up.

Packed the lot back up in the loft last night. Quite liking the spacious feeling now the tree is out of the lounge.

Artificial Tree and 2 cats.... have gotten very tired of cleaning up cat sick over the christmas period as one of them keeping chewing it! Stupid animal!
Tree went back into the loft yesterday!
Always have a dozen decorations that appear/get noticed after all packed away and the ladder hatch closed! They'll stay in a drawer for a few months!

Took mine down yesterday. I normally leave it a few days, but some of my window lights had fallen down so I just thought "f*** it, I'll take everything down". It's a 6ft artificial tree, which is now safely packed up in its box and tucked in the corner of my storage locker until 1st December 
My flat feels a lot bigger now!

I thought this was one of those innuendo threads!
When I purchased my Christmas tree the man selling it asked me "are you putting that up yourself!"
After a moment of thought with eyebrows raised I replied "well no I was going to put it up in the front room"
