I'm going to a mummer-style Twelfth Night tomorrow, so I think taking them down before I hit that would be most fitting. And I was always raised with it being the 6th when they came down, rather that by which they needed to come down.
It's true. But then we are talking about celebrations which supposedly concern events in a year which doesn't really fit the AD/BC timescale spun off from it...
