I actually did give some thought to the wording of the sentiment,
 We have a membership that embraces not only many country's around the world but many and varied faiths as well as those with no beliefs, I decided that the alternatives were Happy Holidays or Happy Christmas, Not Merry as that has in certain circles an Alcoholic meaning, 
 
Happy Holidays is what it is a bland one size fits all, 
Happy Christmas is directed to a specific time of year and a time that all faiths and no faiths recognise to be one which has peace and love at its centre so that's my story and I am sticking to it,
 Happy Huneker/Christmas/Holidays/Whatever. 

This particular greeting was aimed specifically at Dave and Julie in thanks for yet another year of faultless service to our community as I had already covered the wider membership with my Jingle Bells thread.
