Merry Christmas please!
Christmas is almost upon us, and I have to have a moan about something that really irks me!
It is one of the major Christian festivals, but it has become changed by a number of councils to "Happy Holidays" instead of 'Merry Christmas'. All the other religions/ethnicities are referred to by their correct festival title, so I want to see Merry Christmas on the banners. Is this political correctness gone haywire? And why only Christian festivals that are affected? Palmerston North - please change your banners this year.
