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! | | | 3rd January 2008, 19:33 | #9 (permalink) | | Super Tenerifian Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Kent/Los Cristianos Gender: Posts: 1,608 | 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) | | | 3rd January 2008, 19:36 | #10 (permalink) | | Cheshire Cheese Join Date: Oct 2007 Gender: Posts: 1,148 | Quote: Originally Posted by Delderek Definately supposed to be 12th night, with all sorts of dire predictions if you take them down to early.

If you don't tale them down within the twelve night then you should keep them up til next Christmas. | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | | |
