    Hi Guys

    May be this is a bit strange but i just wana check if this is normal !:D

    In my office there is still one person who has all the Christmas Decorations
    hanging arround him on his desk.

    is this normal ?

    its 10th of january and looking at all those decorations making me sick.
    everyone said things to him politely but he is a bit of nutter.

    Can anyone see any Xmas decorations arround you where ever you are ...

    No, it's the 7th that they should come down. The 6th is still Christmas.

    Where are they from? Some Eastern Europeans celebrate christmas on the 7th January, I think.
