We sorted our stuff a few days after Halloween. A bit minimalist this year as we need a new sofa from Santa (for a living room corner). Just a cheap pre-lit, but still blinged-out tree, and a wreath over the door and another on the mantel (just below the TV).

That's got to be a troll right? I'd take it at face value if you hadn't described the secondary plotline of Die Hard 2 as being the primary plotline of Die Hard 1.
I didn't know there were sequels. Have I unwittingly described a sequel and wasn't aware it wasn't the first film? It just didn't seem very Christmassy to me. The music and snow scene was just an aesthetic device at the end and wasn't really anything to do with the plot IIRC.

It goes up sometime after the 20th and gets taken down again on the 27th.

It gets erected on the 1st December, November is a bit premature.

This.
Exactly the same here, despite the kids wanting it up earlier

12 days before xmas, and it comes down 12 days after.
No. My Christmas tree goes up after my birthday in early December., never before.
Christmas trees come down on the 6th or 7th January.
The Golden Rule applies.

Main tree goes up last weekend before Chrimbo so we can spend evening decorating and drinking. Tree comes down 12th night. Christmas is all foreplay these days actual Christmas has been devalued to junk status and is over once everyone gets on their tablet after lunch.
Wifey put ours up yesterday and the entire house is covered in tinsel and lights and banners in every room. Candles, ornaments, even the kids books become all Christmas themed. She does it early for the kids, they love it but not as much as her... somebody kill me.
Although I think my vice is worse... I've already munched through 1 and a half advent calendars
Every year since we first met we've bought each other a bauble, this one is my favourite:
Think it was from Macy's in NYC

Haven't put one up in years, but then Christmas hasn't been hosted at mine for a while.
A guy a few streets over had his Christmas lights up a week before Halloween

When the christmas emotes come out on here, then we know it's time to put the christmas tree up
Haha she can keep dreaming! I'll bring it down from the loft and set up the tree, put on the lights then that's me doneBut I bet she leaves it to you to take it all down and pack it away afterwards
