This weekend just feels a bit too early for me - next weekend seems right.

Just me and the dogs this year and they're useless at putting up the tree so never I suppose.

Going to put it up today. Always depends when I'm in the mood to do it. It can be anytime from the beginning of December to Christmas week.

I seem to remember that last year there was a poster on here who said they had taken their tree down on Christmas night!

Ours is up now, bit of a fight with the lights this year as they didn't work straight out of the box as they usually do. OH got them sorted though.

They are getting on a bit now though, got them for my eldest's first Christmas and she's 36 now
