I have a vision of Wenchy clinging to her Christmas tree forest wailing "Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

That is pretty much how it is. Mine isn't coming down till the 6th.

Is that a serious question 'cos if it is I can explain the tradition but some will get bored and some will start complaining that they don't believe in God etc.

Yes and no. I know all about the 'tradition' as such, I was merely refering to the fact that there doesn't seem much point in leaving them up imo, unless you are planning some sort of post crimbo party over the next 2 days like?

I personally don't see the point of putting them up in the first place, but that's just my opinion. ::)
I'm just a miserable old bastard...apparently, alledgedly, so they say. ::)

I leave them up as long as possible because I like them. I love my trees, my decorations and all of it. When it comes down it feels as though the magic has been sucked out of the house and I hate it.

There's a few of us about

Every year I hear myself saying, "that's it, no Christmas next year", and every following Christmas, we do Christmas  Banghead

I am determined that this coming Christmas (355 days isn't it Wenchy), I won't be doing it, having seen a few programmes on it recently, somewhere lonely on the Isle of Skye appeals

I'll let those that enjoy Christmas enjoy it

(some bugger is gonna drag this up this coming December aren't they)
