Have you taken your Christmas (Holiday) decorations down yet?

It's wet outside here, and it's driving me crazy that my outdoor decorations are still up.

Well, we didn't end up putting too much stuff up outside. I took down the animated Santa projector light, and switched the slide on the other projector so it now says "Happy New Year!"

@LordShadowfire The family a few doors along have an assortment of rather tacky decorations in their small front garden. These include one that seems fashionable this year but rather bizarre: a plastic (inflatable?) Father Christmas dangling by his arms from some part of the building, the window-frame in their case.

I've simply a wreath on the front door, a small artificial tree with battery-powered lamps inside the front room window, and the usual string of cards.

One year I hung a hurricane-lantern above the front door, which is only about six feet in from the street, and faithfully re-filled and re-lit it each night from Christmas Eve till Eleventh Night. The effect was rather lost though, by a bright street-lamp nearly opposite!
