Anyone taken the Christmas tree down yet?

[AlanW]

Well Christmas gone, so why keep it up? We just took ours down, glad to get the living room back to normal to be honest.

It all ways me smile at this point after Chrimbo, those people that spent a fortune, (let alone time and effort) putting cheesey lights and pointless large inflatable snowman etc outside their house's.

Looks a bit stupid now doesn't it.

Mine will come down on Friday or Saturday.

 

[AlanW]

You have to leave it up until 6 January or you are cursed to live forever in purgatory.

Bit late now.

Never got one, only got xmas cards up. No point spending money on decorations and a tree when we go to someone else's for Christmas.

...cheesey lights and pointless large inflatable snowman etc outside their house's...

I want one of those inflatable Santa's for outside our house, preferably a Homer Simpson one - class!

Our Chrissum tree, as my two year old calls it, is still up - would be all year if he got his way I think.

as its dropping that many pine needles, we've trimmed a few of the lower branches, at our present 'trimming rate' it will just be a long stick by the 6th January

Taking mine down on Saturday, I want to re-arrange the furniture in the lounge and it is getting in my way

 

[MacB]

as we, in our madness, decided to remodel downstairs on Boxing Day evening the Xmas trees were partially down that night, and totally packed away by mid morning the next day

We have only ever had a real tree once, and never again! We seemed to spend more time clearing up the aftermath than the time spent looking at it.

Give me a "plastic" tree any day.

I never got round to putting mine up this year.

 

[Speicher]

Did you find something more interesting to do, like some tiling and grouting and eat lots of choccie brownies, and drink lots of tea?

 

[domd1979]

No christmas tree here either. Or any decorations. Or in fact any christmas...

 

[BrumJim]

Agree.

Which is why I am beginning to regret this:
