20 days? snoopcester Send a noteboard - 27/09/2010 03:22:10 PM
Individuals should learn proper manners when it comes to holidays and go for the traditional values. that is, okay to decorate for Christmas one day in advance, and you can leave it up for 20 days afterwards, even though that is not encouraged.



Christmas decorations should be taken down by Twelfth Night.

Shops filling up with christmas stuff? snoopcester - 27/09/2010 01:10:00 PM 677 Views
Huh. That could be it. I haven't noticed that, Camilla - 27/09/2010 01:11:58 PM 654 Views
I move that we ban any signs of Christmas before 25 November. Who's with me? *NM* Tim - 27/09/2010 01:39:57 PM 359 Views
I am *NM* Camilla - 27/09/2010 01:41:32 PM 429 Views
*raises fist* I'm with you. *NM* Avendesora - 27/09/2010 02:55:01 PM 328 Views
I'd be okay with just mid-November snoopcester - 27/09/2010 02:56:09 PM 638 Views
I would give special dispensation for stores selling crafts materials Sareitha Sedai - 27/09/2010 03:04:49 PM 670 Views
Clearly your motion needs to fail. jh - 27/09/2010 03:08:13 PM 763 Views
As usual you are more sensible than I. Sareitha Sedai - 27/09/2010 03:13:50 PM 794 Views
How does decorating one's home have anything to do with manners? *NM* Ghavrel - 27/09/2010 11:52:11 PM 343 Views
What you do with the outside of your house affects other people Camilla - 28/09/2010 12:36:08 AM 729 Views

How are "obtrusive" lights "bad manners"? LiterateDog - 28/09/2010 01:54:59 AM 650 Views
In fairness, I've seen ones that are bright enough to keep people awake. Not so nice. *NM* Ghavrel - 28/09/2010 02:45:34 AM 309 Views
Those people and their displays are few and far between. LiterateDog - 28/09/2010 02:52:09 AM 689 Views
i'd like to make an exception to that to the ones that blare out annoying music at all hours LadyLorraine - 28/09/2010 02:56:23 AM 712 Views
Noise is a completely different matter. LiterateDog - 28/09/2010 03:04:35 AM 708 Views
True. Hence my irritation with having to acknowledge them earlier. *NM* Ghavrel - 28/09/2010 03:32:57 AM 332 Views
But MY point was, you ceded too much to her by even "acknowledging" them, foo'! *NM* LiterateDog - 28/09/2010 03:34:39 AM 424 Views
I agree random thoughts - 28/09/2010 04:33:14 PM 639 Views

Which Christmas? Tom - 27/09/2010 04:17:36 PM 783 Views
I left it ambiguous on purpose, because I remember you giving me shit about this before. Sareitha Sedai - 27/09/2010 04:28:00 PM 577 Views
Also there should be no Christmas lights switched on before December 1st *NM* Mark - 27/09/2010 03:40:25 PM 327 Views
I would allow it after November 1 for stores, after November 25 for homes. Tom - 27/09/2010 04:15:26 PM 795 Views
Here it's shops that are the problem. We have very few ridiculous gaudy light displays. Tim - 27/09/2010 08:50:07 PM 613 Views
I would be inclined to believe you if I didn't know you were in Scotland. Tom - 29/09/2010 03:24:54 PM 698 Views
Bah, changing the subject! *NM* Tim - 29/09/2010 03:26:07 PM 454 Views

Christmas will spread from my room--a great wind that sweeps over the land like... a great wind! *NM* Ghavrel - 27/09/2010 11:51:19 PM 312 Views
As a matter of fact I am listening to Quem Pastores Laudavere in protest. *NM* Ghavrel - 28/09/2010 01:29:36 AM 325 Views

I've been having that same sensation, but that's nothing unusual for me LadyLorraine - 27/09/2010 02:19:22 PM 680 Views
It's the other way round for me, so that shouldn't be it Camilla - 27/09/2010 02:49:23 PM 771 Views

I heard Christmas songs on the radio about five weeks ago. *NM* Stephen - 27/09/2010 02:46:46 PM 409 Views
I don't listen much to the radio, thankfully. Camilla - 27/09/2010 02:49:59 PM 661 Views
It was in a shopping centre. Stephen - 27/09/2010 03:21:32 PM 741 Views
