Adults will spend almost five years over their lifetime prepping for Christmas Day
Adults who celebrate Christmas will spend almost five years preparing for the big day over their lifetime.
Research has revealed a total of 34 hours is spent untangling lights, more than two days decorating the tree, and 164 weeks – just over three years – cleaning and tidying before guests arrive, to ensure the festive season goes to plan.
The poll of 2,000 adults, who participate in Yuletide, also found they will spend the equivalent of a day and a half picking or vacuuming up pine leaves from real trees over a period of 63 years.
And almost one-and-a-half days will be dedicated to re-decorating the tree if children or other household members have done a poor job of it – with a confident 22% claiming their decorating skills are "amazing".
But one of the most time-consuming festive tasks is planning for the Christmas dinner, which takes up almost two-and-a-half years.
An average of 41 hours will also be spent on "unexpected" challenges, such as failed cookers and hosting for last-minute guests.
