You can have battery lights fluttering anytime

Do you put them up and take them down early?

I don't like taking them down before Twelfth Night - they might not like it

Mine are still looking at me. I haven't turned the lights on, so does that count as not having them up?
I've been under the weather with a nasty chest cough and haven't felt like taking them down. And I like my robin and reindeer, so why should I put them in a cupboard for most of the year?
I don't put my xmas hoggies away, though

Nuthatch is correct - THEY take great exception to any deviation from The Rule. Twelfth Night it is. 'Twas ever thus and forever shall be .......

Amen

JooMoo - you can still have the lights on - they're only candle substitutes and it's so dull and dreary indoors when the sun isn't shining in

I've got stuff around too that stays put - safer than moving it

Nice to always have a bit of Christmas around - exciting, if anything

Hope you'll feel much better anon - is HB any good with honey in it and extra brew in it too?

The lights will flutter until the batteries are finished,I like them the house is dull after the declutter,I saw a man stuff lights into an empty wine bottle to get a bit of brightness he was on tv yesterday I live on a street where trees go up on the first but not me my OH never fails to tell me we are always last.

Have you seen the cartoony-type TV ad for 'gardenwildlifedirect' based in Preston ??
This is what used to be Garden Bird Supplies and I recall Sonic telling me that GBS had been taken over and was being run from Preston. So, this is the result, I s'pose .......

Strange that they've pinched most of OUR title !!!

Ooo good spot.
I seem to be on GWD's emailing list (I must have ordered something from them.
And GBS now call themselves Garden Bird & Wildlife co.

And spookily, as I was typing this I had an email in off GWD

Don't understand that. Why run two and cut the prices, significantly !!, on one of them ??
Must be the same outfit though, Joomoo.

I haven't seen the advert but wondered where they'd pitched up from - been getting lots of emails too but when I've clicked on to their website it's shut down IE every time

Edit 11.40: Just tried from latest email received this morning and it froze the screen

Does anyone still get emails from Twootz? - I haven't had any for some while.

Edit 12.22: Tried to access GWD from Google and it froze the screen and doo-dooed one of my disks - again
