Dear all

[sidkid]

(from Seasonal/Christmas section)
I wanted to send some sort of holiday greeting to you all at Answerbank, but it is difficult in today's world to know exactly what to say without offending someone. So I met with my lawyer yesterday, and on his advice I wish to say the following :

Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low stress, non addictive, gender neutral celebration of the Christmas holiday practised with the most enjoyable traditions of religious persuasion or secular practices of your choice with respect for the religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all.

I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2012 , but not without due respect for the calendar of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make our country great (not to imply that the UK is necessarily greater than any other country) and without regard to the race, creed, colour, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee .

By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms :

This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for her/him or others and is void where prohibited by law, and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. The wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual application of good tidings for a period of one year or until the issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher .

Best Regards SidKid
P.S.
here is a little Christmas song from my granddaughter

Thanks but I'm afraid that I cannot fully accept this greeting without the express approval of all contained within it by my own lawyer. I have passed your message to him and if any clarification is required or if any terms are deemed to leave me exposed then he will be in contact. However I have been advised that I can agree in principle to accept your greeting and to extend your own wishes back to you on the understanding that it does not constitute a binding contract between us.

Peanut is a quintessential cutey, sidkid. And I don't care if anyone finds this unPC.
