Twelfth Night(?)
Maybe they were put out yesterday, or maybe today. I hadn't realised there was such disagreement on when Twelfth Night actually was was but because some Christian traditions start counting on Christmas Day and others on Boxing Day it can be either January 5th or 6th. More confusing still there are those start the Twelve Days of Christmas at sundown on Christmas Day so the Twelfth Night, on Jan 5th/6th, is followed by the Twelfth Day, on Jan 6th. There is more agreement that Jan 6th is Epiphany, unless your church is still using the Julian calendar, which considers Jan 6th to be the day the Gregorian calendar calls Jan 19th!
