Re: Who is a Xmas Traditionalist?
 

My tree came down 2 days ago, with all the new toys in the house after the big day we needed the space, and once boxing day has gone I just don't see the fun in having them up any longer. Looking around my street most people have taken theirs down also.

ours came down today, for the simple reason i am the only one who can reach up to put them back in the loft, and i wont be here from monday...

Well, our new (artificial) Xmas tree is now dismantled and in the attic until next Xmas. Now, it may be true that that what goes round comes round, but it is definitely not true that what comes out of a box goes back into a box. The tree is now partly in its box and partly in a pedal bin liner. I'm sure it has copied the rest of us and put on weight over the holidays.

Just finished packing all ours away for another year - roll on xmas 2004 :D

To me a traditional christmas Russ is one exactly like we used to have in the 80s and earlier...... BEAUTIFUL C7 COLOURED BULBS,A tree that smells piney...... Nice decorations...... Nice warm GOOD analogue christmas music,etc........

Im not really into christmas anymore because its so ugly....... Tiny white LED lights,ugly decorations...... THIS IS NOT CHRISTMAS TO ME............

Some people in my neighbourhood dont take thier stuff down until spring!! (But amazingly not too many had any decorations up this year) Our tree came down last week......

This christmas WAS A LITTLE EASIER FOR ME as I had a small TABLE TOP TREE and that one I decorated with C7 bulbs :)
