Start of December.

It's a lot of effort to put them all out and back again, so they stay up until just after the 31st, as it makes the entry into another grim year a little more cheery.

I don't have many, just a small tree and some ornaments.

The rest will go out a couple of weeks before Christmas.

Mine have 'gone up' in the loft, years ago.

They will probably stay there until my executor*/the social services*/the bailiffs* deal with the junk up there.

*Which of these depends very much on which way my life goes in these increasingly uncertain times.

Christmas should be ‘kicked into December’ …. but December IS the month of Christmas …. so once into December, let the fun begin!! … if you’re going to put them up, you want to make the most of them.

Mine will go up as soon as I can in December… a boozy afternoon that includes bottle of Croft Original … and Gluwein !!

They come down usually on the 2/3 Jan.

Each year I test the water with my kids to see if I can get away with not having to put up a crimbo tree. I think we have just a couple of years left and then I will happily not bother.

They usually go up first week of December and are down by 28th December.
