I didn't get mine up till right before Christmas, and I've been away. So they are coming down tomorrow. Normally I have them down by 2nd Jan, though. I think that with them going up so early in most places nowadays, and with people being back at work, it's a bit daft waiting for Epiphany...

I did get mine down today. Ready for working weeks after Christmas. And why is that? It's an old tradition from Swedish, it's from the scottish tales (says G.Buchanan) of King Arcturus, it's from the ancient Romans (Saturnalia-season) and it's from pagan believes (holy month) and it's from old Lappish people (native Finns) - basse maanet. The old almanacs in Sweden has named 13th of January the "Octava epiphanie Domini" or "20.de dag jul" (20th day of Christmas). Christmas peace is over at last. :wave:
