Also the idea of Carnival starting after Christmas until Ash Wednesday is still present. You meant to have lots of parties and general merrymaking.

When we were young decorations wouldn't go up until the day before Christmas Eve or Christmas Eve itself, I like that they put the decs up in the UK a few weeks before, what I don't like is that as soon as boxing day is over some shops start taking them down, if feels like they are rushing you onto the next shopping event
