How long do you think I can get away with keeping our Christmas tree up before the wife tells me to take it down?

LATEST - Today (Jan 25th) my daughter said, "Why's the tree still up, it's weird!" I think it's just a matter of time now, lol.

STOP PRESS - IT’S DOWN!
I therefore declare MonStar and 10200 joint winners as they were the closest.

Daft_Monks has already nabbed it. If you look at the original post, I've listed all the dates.

There can only be one winner. The 6th is free.

reply

[–] overseas7 (3725) 2 years ago

Well, I choose (under protest) the 6th.

I call bullshit. We all know that there is no such thing as a married man who posts on internet message boards.

This is getting ridiculous! It's down by Friday, alright?! I'm already seeing easter eggs in the stores!🥚

[–] AndyKing1967 (35066) 2 years ago

It can be our Chinese New Year tree and then our Easter tree.

Your poor, poor wife.☹

I don’t know how she puts up with me.

Bit late with an entry but March 1st. You can replace it with a nice big leek - or some daffodils.

A St. David's tree - I like this.

As far as I'm concerned you are a lazy schmuck for not having taken your Christmas tree down yet. I refuse to play your game as you are an absolute fool for having your Christmas tree still up in February.

[–] AndyKing1967 (35066) 2 years ago

Love you too 😘

I guess he doesn’t share my sense of humour.
