Superstitious I know, but I understand it is bad luck to take Christmas Decorations down late. Is the 12th night tonight or tomorrow?:confused:

If they are not taken down today, spot fines will be issued to offenders for 'extracting more mileage out of the Christmas season than is legally available.'

Be warned.

The Post - Christmas Police (PCP), to give them their correct tiltle, are a force to be reckoned with.

They are trained to spot tinsel from OUTSIDE a house and the dogs can sniff out a plain POUNDLAND bauble from a more than a hundred yards.

A certain Mr Sniggles, a German Shepherd (now retired),
who worked for The Essex Post-Christmas Police Department (EPCPD) at the beginning of the century, could reportedly identify an unhoovered pine needle , by way of nose, from almost thirty miles! Incredible stuff.

During his working days he got people convicted as late as May!!!!

Take heed, my friends.

Do you think I'll get away with my current avatar for a few more days? Hopefully nobody will grass me up to the police.

Hang on..there's a knock at the door....

:help: :help:

I am having absolutely nothing to do with it: it's entirely at your own risk.

PS, don't be a fool: get rid of it while you still can.
