Not one person ever said to me - 'we don't celebrate Christmas'.
I will continue to wish everyone a 'Merry Christmas'......and to hell with the PC brigade.
So while I am here ...to all my Accyweb Friends...where-ever you are.
Merry Christmas. I wish you everything you would wish for yourselves.

Well said Margaret. I have a family of Sikh neighbours and one who are Hindu and they "celebrate" xmas too buying presents and they always wish us Buon Natale! I always give them something (they love mince pies!) and this year will buy something for their new Grandson. When it's their own festivals they celebrate those too and share them, bringing bracelets and sweets etc. Different cultures don't have to mean division it's all about sharing things not making them tabu.
