G'day All I wanted to send some sort of holiday greeting to my friends and colleagues, but it is difficult in today's world to know exactly what to say without offending someone. So I met with my lawyer 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 , no......n 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 .
Thank God that dont count here
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL.

Sir and Madam
I conditionally accept your greeting and my solicitor will contact you within the next 5 working days to consolidate the content.
Please note the greeting will not be cleared until the probationary period has expired.
Once this has occurred you may expect to receive a reciprocal salutation.

What! Can someone please translate this to Australian English? Talk about gobbledegook!
