        I went to Love Lombard in Preston today for Christmas crackers in the colour that I require. They have an absolute fuckload of Halloween stuff if you’re interested. Floating heads in crystal balls, all manner of skulls, vampire rats like WTF, living dead girls and so on.

      Christmas decos go up the first Saturday or Sunday of December and come down the first Saturday or Sunday of January

      Edit: this is apparently so controversial I copped a downvote with no comment! Sorry I don’t like Christmas I guess

            Decos up on Xmas eve, then down by 6th January. This encompasses the canonical 12 days of Xmas that my true love sent to me. Also by then one is completely sick of the whole thing. Starting in November with the xmas carols on loop in every shop is enough to turn one atheist - a violent bomb-throwing atheist.
