I think it is bad luck to leave them up after twelfth night but not if you take them down before. And yes I usually leave one Stray, not taken them down yet, will do tomorrow.

I don't think I have missed any, but when I pulled the tree apart I discovered it had a lot of little Lego men lodging in the branches lol

If you forget to take them down on twelfth night then you need to leave them there until Candlemas - 2nd Feb - otherwise it's very unlucky.

I have three "baubles" hanging in the dining room that I forgot to take down last year so I just left them. I expect I'll forget them again this year!

Taking them down tomorrow Stray when the trees are mashed into bark at our local recycling plant.....

.....but we always manage to lose a set of lights somewhere, and this time its the ones we wind around the garland that goes along the mantelpiece.......mind you they have lasted 4 years......

......I also managed to short out the fibre-optic little tree in the hall, and blew up the microwave....... too much electrical charge in me maybe.....lol....

Don't know, I haven't taken the trees down yet... but I have forgotten baubles from last year... Jethro thinks they are his toys now, so I may have to leave them for him... last year I had a candle left out.... and four Christmases ago forgot a set of lights in the conservatory, but loved them so much they are still up, lolol

The house will seem so dark without them... and I daren't have candles because of the cats. :¬((

Love
