A belated happy holidays ( :P) to you all!

One thing that pisses me off about the US is that its a six week build up to Christmas, then the whole thing stops in an instant on the 26th! I do miss the week or so it continues on for at home.

Hope youse all had and are having a good one!

Not too bad, but that could change I'm sure with leaving Europe and stuff

I can't imagine not having the week to kick back. The year is long enough as it is. You can fit in three or four proper nights out in the week or so around Christmas..

Merry Christmas lad.

I think it is a cultural thing. Americans have a bogeyman called socialism who gives things like days off and sick pay. 5 weeks holidays would be rare in the US.

There's no Christmas peace in Ballagh anyways. Just more people to be arguing with.

The Americans don't say happy or merry Christmas anymore. Happy holidays term to keep the many different religions happy?

They do say Merry Christmas, they just sometimes say Happy Holidays as a catch-all for Thanksgiving, Hanukah, Christmas and all the other stuff that goes on at this tim of year.

I'm surprised a sensitive chap like yourself didn't say "the holidays". How very un-PC of you!

How's that ?  ;)

Only in letting yourself and your PC principles down. At least you are paying attention to the new president

Despite the origins, it's more of a secular (or maybe "all-religion") holiday.  Everyone celebrates it, except the Native Americans.
