All down, house all clean and tidy, ready for being back at work on Tuesday. If I wasn't back at work next week they would still be up.

No, it's bad luck to leave them up after the 6th. You can take them down anytime. (Not that there's such a thing as bad luck. ).

I think mine will have to come down this weekend. I love them at Christmas, but I can't stand them any more afterwards. They look so pathetic and redundant.

Took the tree down on Boxing Day as we were fed up with the cat chewing on it and knocking everything off.

We didn't have much up but yes all gone now, day after Boxing Day I like to have a complete clean through so we go into new year tidy and fresh.

Both almost right, it's actually supposed to be bad luck to 'take them down after 12th night', so if you leave them up after then, it's fine unless take them down

Ours all taken down this Morning.
Most of my neighbours took theirs down yesterday I noticed.
Yesterday saw that a neighbour had gained a giant Santa Bart Simpson wrapped around their motorhome aerial, blew from somewhere as it was not there over Christmas. They have gone away for new year so will have a nice surprise when back.
