When does Christmas start for you?

Norwich

The tree is up and the lights are twinkling in the window. The cupboard is brimming with Xmas treats and the freezer is full of home baked goods. The final shop for fresh groceries happens on Friday the 20th and when we get home from a heaving shop full of irritable shoppers, we will crack open the single malt and then the holidays begin.

Next Door

Usually Xmas eve, early afternoon.

By then all the fresh shopping would have been done, prep done for Xmas lunch, prep done for Xmas eve dinner.

Sit down, with a glass of mulled wine or cider.

It usually ends on 28th. Family goes back. Xmas Dec's come down. A few days off /relaxing, before returning to work in Jan.

Decs went up and music went on back in November. First mince pies were eaten late summer.

I finish work on Friday so it'll be Christmas proper then, but in my heart it's Christmas all year round.

Layton,Blackpool.

When I finish work on the 22nd, but Christmas is very difficult for me this year as I lost my soul mate earlier in the year, still feel upside/inside out.

It sort of started today for me when I got most of my presents completed and wrapped. This year has been a shit show though, I've still not even got my outside lights up 🙈 I'll be working sat/sun/Mon/boxing day as well, so not the greatest holiday break this year. Maybe ice skating in the city centre will hammer it home at the weekend 🤞

Personally I'm sick of Christmas before December starts these days. Way too much commercialised nowadays which starts with supermarkets having Christmas stock out in August!

It used to start on the 13th of December when the tree and decorations went up.

It starts late on Christmas Eve in a way, but not really until Christmas Day, and as everyone seems to have forgotten now even if they know the carol, ‘The Twelve Days of Christmas’, it goes on for twelve days, not just Christmas Day and Boxing Day. People these days have spent so much time getting wound up and buying things and having (pre-)Christmas parties that Christmas itself seems to be something of an anticlimax, certainly by Boxing Day, which is mainly a day of deflation and recovery, never mind for the next ten days of Christmas that have been completely forgotten!
