I'd suggest you leave the strings. My mother, a very superstitious woman, always maintained that if anything Christmassy was left up after 12th night it had to stay up until the following Christmas. Doing otherwise would bring bad luck to the house. She never specified what kind of bad luck but she was adamant :) Elizabeth xxElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05762785911026167332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3942336277057331056.post-91534981681424879822016-01-31T10:59:05.005+00:002016-01-31T10:59:05.005+00:00Barb...save time leave the strings up for this yea...Barb...save time leave the strings up for this year!!.....hope you are well?....JoolsxJulieanne..aka pinkjoolshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06713342294587671489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3942336277057331056.post-9919449387872384902016-01-31T08:50:01.905+00:002016-01-31T08:50:01.905+00:00Thanks Barb for joining my blog followers, hope yo...Thanks Barb for joining my blog followers, hope you find some inspiration.

I understand your broadband excitement, my parents currently get 2Mb broadband, it struggled a bit at Christmas when 4 of us were trying to look up the flooding on the net, they're due to be upgraded to super fast in a couple of months and Mum, computer wizard at 76 can't wait. Thank you so much for your lovely comments on my blog, they are very much appreciated.

Where we have moved to on the outskirts of Shrewsbury has very slow internet [a fraction of what we had out in the country!] It's so frustrating and there looks to be no plan to speed things up anytime soon....even though where our daughter lives [literally 2 mins away at the other end of the estate] she has really fast internet! I'm smiling for you.<br />Hugs,<br />Annie xAnniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12564678114875826791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3942336277057331056.post-73722956878652053462016-01-29T09:25:55.645+00:002016-01-29T09:25:55.645+00:00It's crazy how quickly February has arrived is...It's crazy how quickly February has arrived isn't it!
