I'm an atheist and we do not celebrate the CHRISTmas, we do celebrate the Solstice on Dec 21 and do gifts on that day. Bit of a bugger as Mrs Hawtrey has a birthday on the 22nd. WE still say Happy Christmas to those who celebrate as we would say Happy Hannukah to those who celebrate that. Live and let live, etc...
However I do hate it when people assume and say Happy Christmas to me just because I am an old white dude!
Out of interest, who do you say 'Happy Hannukah' to?
 

I can trust no one now, not even myself.

Attended early Mass on Christmas morning, watched Urbi et Orbi on RTE on my ‘tea-break’ while prepping Crimbo dinner. Spotify had Christmas hymns on for dinner.

A walk this morning to shake the cobwebs. Met the lady from Nottingham who lives just over. She commented ‘it isn’t Christmas anymore, it’s just a holiday’.

My mind said, ‘This is a trap and she is @chicoazul’.

Damn you.

This is the correct answer.

Merry boxing day.
