you used the 'C' word, FE will not be amused methinks

How about we can actually call it Christmas and the FE can learn to come to terms with the fact that the word exists outside of December?

We're having a rib of beef and goose this Wintermas... I hear that the Turkeys have voted to give it a miss this year;)

The FE's "ban" is honoured more in the breach than the observance.

As lotvic says, it started early and has made many appearances since, even more if you include euphemisms such as Winterfest or Wintermas, which defeat the whole object of his bit of fun anyway.

Of course, if the FE's little idiosyncrasies are really upsetting, you could always try somewhere else!
