Here’s wishing everyone a good time over the next few days and of course enjoy your music.
And to those facing challenging times, keep strong and don’t lose the faith.
Regards,

My dear Friends,
I really wanted to send out some sort of holiday greeting but it is so difficult in today’s world to know exactly what to say without offending someone.
So I met with my solicitor yesterday, and on his advice, I want to say:
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 winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, 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 2025, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures 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 theses 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/himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law, and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. This 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 subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher.
I hope that this falls within the forum guidelines.

But it really means “believe in yourself”, so it’s a good thing to keep hold of!

I wonder if I might crave your momentary indulgence in order to discharge a by no means disagreeable obligation which has, over the years, become more or less established practice within certain circles as we approach the terminal period of the year, calendar, of course, not financial, in fact, not to put too fine a point on it, Week Fifty-One, and submit to you, with all appropriate deference, for your consideration at a convenient juncture, a sincere and sanguine expectation, indeed confidence, indeed one might go so far as to say hope, that the aforementioned period may be, at the end of the day, when all relevant factors have been taken into consideration, susceptible of being deemed to be such as to merit a final verdict of having been by no means unsatisfactory in its overall outcome and, in the final analysis, to give grounds for being judged, on mature reflection, to have been conducive to generating a degree of gratification which will be seen in retrospect to have been significantly higher than the general average.

Just like to wish everyone a merry Christmas from my family to yours. Hope you get to spend time with family and friends and don’t put on too many kilos during the festivities. 
Also I’d like to thank the forum members for the support and kind words during what has been a difficult year.
Once again Merry Christmas, take care.

Good thread to say thanks to everyone for putting up with my opinions and welcoming me over the past few years. Have a good Christmas and special wishes to those on their own and those going through stuff at the moment. Happy, prosperous and mostly good health for the new year.
