Re: When does Xmas start in you`re house?
I was always under the impression it was 12 days before, but other half did it yesterday! Not my department, if you missed her, she was the one with a car full of tree and decorations, because of course last years aren't good enough! May as well have real tree, she changes it every year anyway.

It's just started, thats why I'm on here
 No doubt I'll be called upon very soon for the bits that need the step ladder - hmm, might buy her some stilts for Xmas, I'll get out of it next year then |

Re: When does Xmas start in you`re house?
It's my daughters birthday on the 10th, so we tended to do the decorations the weekend after this so as not to detract from her day.

Re: When does Xmas start in you`re house?
well i put my tree up yesterday, and the bloody thing took 4 hours to put together (was going to say erect but i'd only get sarcastic comments from Neil) i have to put my tree up branch by branch and seen as its over 6ft tall it took ages, it looks gorgeous though
so my christmas starts on the 1st of December, i've also finished buying all the christmas pressies so i'm all done now

Re: When does Xmas start in you`re house?
We have no pressies yet, and no personal cards written, almost done with the 2000+ cards for customers though!
