seasons greetings

[Paddy]

I wanted to send some sort of seasonal greeting to CUK, but it is difficult in today's world to know exactly what to say without offending someone. So I met with my solicitor (not my accountant) yesterday, and on advice I wish to say the following:
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 with the most enjoyable traditions of religious persuasion 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 calendar of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make our country great ( not to imply that Great Britain is necessarily greater than any other country ) 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 these 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/him or others and is void where prohibited by law, and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. The 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 new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher.
ACCEPTING THIS GREETING DOES NOT AFFECT ANY RIGHTS YOU MAY HAVE AS A POSSIBLY SOON TO BE INDEPENDANT CITIZEN OF SCOTLAND.
THIS GREETING HAS A NOMINAL CASH VALUE OF 0,00000005 PENCE
Best Regards (without prejudice),

Subject: RE: Seasonal Greeting

Thank you for your elaborate and carefully worded seasonal greeting. However, I must express my concern regarding the potential legal implications surrounding your qualifications for good tidings.

While your intention may be to foster inclusivity and goodwill, I feel compelled to inform you that I will be consulting with my legal team regarding this greeting. Should it be deemed that any misrepresentation or unintended distress arises from your message, I will pursue all avenues for damages.

Please consider this a formal notification that any philosophical interpretations of my reception of your communication may lead to a counterclaim should I find myself adversely affected.

Best regards Paddy
