Is your tree up?

Nope, it goes up the last weekend before Christmas (except if Christmas is Mon or Tues). When I was little we used to go and get the tree from the garden centre near my school on the last day of term.
Although I don't know what we will do in my house as we're all going away for Christmas so we'll probably do it a week or two early.Public appearances now involve clothing. Sorry, it's part of my bail conditions.0 -
Our tree won't go up until December 1st. Hallowe'en barely feels over! (Still have one or two Hallowe'en decorations to put back in the garage.) November is too soon for me.0

no, ours doesnt go up until after ds's birthday on the 20th december. He's allowed to put his christmas tree up in his room if he wants, and we'll put the nativity scene out in the hall, but thats about it.0

My boyfriend wanted to put the decorations up LAST weekend. He believes christmas starts 6th november. I love christmas, but that IS too early!
This weekend will probably be going into the loft and retrieving everything ready though.:wave:0 -

Another one of not up until after DD's birthday so it will probably go up around the 10th December a few days after her day. My neighbours across the street have had theirs up for weeks!
It is madness!0 -
Ours go up 1st of December, hubby likes to put them up when he goes on leave which is normally the 15th/16th but since we have introduced elves and started that tradition they went up 1st to coincide with that, Hubby would never let me put them up in November lol'There are far better things ahead Than any we leave behind '0
