However, others revealed their trees are already up and they’re in the Christmas spirit.

One wrote: “Mine has been up since the first week of October.”

Meanwhile, Holly admitted she’s been debating whether to put her tree up.

She said: “I’ve got my Christmas lights outside my house on already. They’ve been on for about a month!

“My sister’s done it, she’s got her decorations up. My niece has decorated her tree in her bedroom. I’m feeling left out!”

Phil asked: “By the weekend that’ll be up?” to which Holly said: “Yeah, why not.”
