Don't the decorations have to be down by 12th night, not on 12th night?

I finally quit running for good last year after screwing my achiles. It's the most dangerous means of keeping fit devised by humankind.

Youre kinda right there Drago. only time i ever broke a bone or on a crutch was running accident, even riding bike fast downhill is safer cause you stay alert, GWS Mo ps I am back running and doing races again in April but stay alert , so will you Mo

They should be taken down on Twelfth Night.
Or, if you're following tradition or forget then it's Candlemas Day(2nd February).

I don't have a tree.

The last ever series of Vera is on tonight. I will of course be watching it.

I started to watch a good miniseries on Netflix called Departure. Its quite good and gets you guessing.

Oh bloody hell. Someone close by has just started off a firework display.
Millie is not impressed.

We had this discussion at work many years ago

The question was started by someone who would be away on the 12th night and wanted the opinion of everyone on whether they should take then down before or after their went away
The general opinion was that they have to be taken down BY 12th night - so its OK to take them down anytime after Christmas

Mrs D cooked a delicious curry for dinner so had a nice long walk with Bruce and a podcast to help it settle down in the old gullivers.

Night night everyone.
I really need an early night. All this rich food is playing havoc with my stomach problems, it’s fine during the day but I havnt had a good nights sleep in three days .
I couldn’t even be bothered to go sailing this morning . Too tired.
See you all in the morning . 😀
