    Mine will be gone by the end of the week. I love Christmas and normally drag my feet taking everything down. But my Dad has been here for two weeks and left today. Every time I look at the tree I'm reminded of everything he has done during his stay for me and how much I miss him. Especially as it was the first Christmas we have had together in about 15 years.

    My PILs are overseas ATM so we are intending to have them over for a late xmas lunch probably 12/13 of Jan.. It will come down ASAP after that. Usually we would take it down any time between now & new years eve.

    Usually I'd be saying yes. I generally bring it down on the 27th. I have heard people say it is bad luck to bring it down before 12 days after Christmas, and after the year we've had I am going to wait LOL.

    I bring it down early because it is generally up really early. Santa comes to Adelaide early November so by the time Christmas rolls around I am sick of looking at it. But this year it went up late (for us), so it will come down when we get back from holidays. We get back on the 6th

    Usually wait til Jan the 6th, but this year I've started talking decorations down since the kitteh has probably ingested about 2 tonnes of tinsel already and I'm loathe to pay for her to have her intestines unblocked. But usually it's up on the 1st Dec and down on the 6th Jan.

    I'm taking ours down tomorrow, before we go away. We're back just before DD2's bday party, so I want it gone so I can get ready for that.
