I just wanted to wish everyone who celebrates Christmas a very Happy Christmas when it arrives for You all around the world, and I hope it is everything You all hoped it would be with friends and family, presents and to much turkey.

Happy Christmas 2018 everyone.

Thanks Hannah. Merry Christmas from France (without turkey but with oysters and snails )

Feliz Navidad from Spain, with turkey, all kind of pricey seafood, lamb, roasted pork and basically all you can eat (and afford)

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate the holiday. For those who don't celebrate Christmas, I wish you peace on and happiness.

I wish one & all a great Christmas or Festive Season, I hope you & your family are well, and that the new year is a joyous & auspicious one.

oysters for Christmas dinner, hmm ok, I can see that, least the turkey wont go extinct if we eat produce of the oceans but Shark, snails Im sorry, there is some food lines even I will not cross which is kinda weird because my culture will eat literally every insect

Thanks Hannah. The sentiments are appreciated. Wish you and all of the lagooners all the best.

I too extend happy holiday wishes to all Lagooners. My wish for all of you and yours is good health and happiness.

I'm a very picky eater! That said I have eaten frogs legs, and while in Germany, at the NCO club, snails (they were tasty). I've never eaten clams or oysters unless in a chowder or stew, in those cases I enjoy it very much.

Happy Christmas to shark and all the lagooners wishing to all the best

Trust me -- I'm too late to wish you all a Merry Christmas or whatever your favourite flavour of Solstice holiday is! Never mind -- Happy New Year everyone, no matter which way the Brexit Trump is blowing!!!

I can't say I'm likely to fancy snails, particularly since the whelks I sampled 35 years ago are very snail-like and my OH and I considered them revolting -- we threw them out on the back lawn but had to gather them up to dispose of in the refuse because not even the local seagulls would touch them. Roast duck was our Christmas dinner of choice and very tasty it was too!

May the joy of the season be with all my fellow Lagooners thrtu out tha following year.

Almost every site that I belong to has in my signature "Wishes for good health and happiness".
That is a real heartfelt desire not only for the reader but her/his family and friends.
For those of us that celebrate Christmas, this time of the year carries special consideration/thoughts of loved ones.
To EVERYONE that I have ever had the pleasure of chatting with (arguing with too) or just reading a few of their thoughts, I extend a genuine desire that you, your family, and all acquaintances be healthy, happy, and free from worries. IMO That is true riches.
I send wishes for Merry Christmas to everyone and all they have any feelings toward not only now but as long as you/they and yours inhabit this world.
Lou.

And to you too, Lou!

I haven't talked to you for so long, I don't think I've ever told you that we now have a Frisch's nearby. I don't have a Big Boy without thinking of you.
