Mine will come down on Monday, after Kings Day.

My son has been away for the last 2 weeks (but back tomorrow), so I'm doing a Christmas lunch on Sunday and we'll open our gifts from each other then too....

Mine were easy to take down. Cards came down on New Year's Eve. Then a garland on the mantle-piece and a wreath on the door. At least I don't have to look at all the tacky lights whilst driving around now most people are removing them. However, there seems to be a trend starting where some houses and pubs are keeping the outdoor lights, especially on trees all year round!

Definately supposed to be 12th night, with all sorts of dire predictions if you take them down to early. (Like Mole hills all over the Golf course,,,OG take notice)

I thought it was bad luck if you took them down after the twelth night. If you don't tale them down within the twelve night then you should keep them up til next Christmas.
