Felicidades
Grandad December 22nd, 2010
Please accept without obligation, either express or implied, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice, celebrated according to the most enjoyable traditions, religious beliefs or secular practices of your choice, with due respect for the religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions of any kind at all;
AND
a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling, and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures, whose contributions to civilisation are also acknowledged, and without regard to race, creed, colour, age, physical ability, religious belief, choice of computer platform, or sexual orientation.

A merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you too
There went five minutes of my life I won’t get back.
You made Miss Pat laugh. Thank you.
Happy Fucking New Year to you, too.

Don’t encourage him, Brighid,
The sun’s shining through the windows, the sky is blue,it’s 56F/13C, the birds are at the feeders, I just got my Viz out of the mailbox, nothing can spoil my good humor mon vieux. So Felice Navvy Dad.
No shit, grandad – had me worried for a while ….
Ever thought of working for NAMA GD? They’d pay you about E1m a year for writing up contracts like that!
Seriously, merry xmas to you and yours, have a great one.
This is typical of you !!
I’m deeply offended that you managed not to cater for smokers. No mention at all, like we are not there or something. Not even a hint of acknowledgement to this suffering minority.
It is my attention to draw this ommision to some bozoo in Europe whose sole purpose is to worry the well intentioned.
That just goes top show, John. I am utterly indifferent as to whether my readers are smokers or not. Now if I were an Anti …….. ???
Nup, gonna eat, drink, get merry, fall down drunk, have a nap and probably do the whole thing over again. Have an awesome Christmas and wishing you and the little woman a very happy New Year.
GD i thought you shot lawyers.
Merrry Christmas, Grandad
from all the analysts at Langley
I am completely, utterly and without any doubt whatsoever,…overwhelmed.
Edit: Oh yeah, and a Merry Christmas to you, sir. And that particular holiday greeting is intended solely to you who, I assume, still celebrates, even a little bit, Christmas.
Kirk M´s last brainfart .. Rotten Computers!
And I hope you all have a good one too; wherever and whoever you are…..
Christmas Day 1pm. Merry Christmas Grandad.
Nicely done Grandad. Way to go!! Kirk got me over here – He sure knows a class act when he sees it!
It’s almost midnight here, but not too late to wish you a Merry Christmas, you still have Boxing Day to go. Thanks for making me smile.:-)
TT – St Stephen’s Day 3 pm. And a very Happy New Year to you Sir.
Welcome, Denise. Any friend of Kirk’s, etc etc. I am a wee bit late, so I will just wish you the Seasons Greetings instead?!
Grandad I’m disappointed.
You greeted DH above like a long lost cousin, completely ignoring
the boxing day jibe.
If I want to greet a new visitor, I will.
If I want to ignore something, I will.
It’s my fucking site.
And what’s the jibe in Boxing Day? I know that’s what some people call it, just as others call it St Stephen’s Day. Horses for courses.
