It's mostly coming down on New Year's Day but I leave the mistletoe and the holly up until twelfth night. Gwynne

If I had my way ours would be down tonight - Christmas is over after Boxing Day for me. But Sharon likes them, so they'll stay up a little longer...

normally i would leave them up till twelfth night but with nothing much happening here over New Year I thought it might be a wee bit depressing having them up for Hogmanay. Thought maybe I should take them all down and put them away and get house back to normal and tidied afore Hogmanay......

I'll definitely be leaving mine up until 12th night, the only thing that makes these dark winter evenings bearable is all the pretty christmas lights. I put mine up first weekend in December so I at least get a whole month to enjoy them. Everything looks so bare when they come down. Carolyn
