When I saw the subject saying "sorry no pick", I thought of "you have no choice - I'm going to wish you Happy Holidays..."
Multi-culturalism is going crazy where even though it is a Christian holiday in a predominantly Christian country, there is so much concern about offending those who aren't Christian that it is discouraged from saying Merry Christmas as opposed to Seasons Greetings... You could be changing season and just say that - summer to autumn transition - Seasons Greetings!
I reckon that in Australia, if you get together with friends and/or family and have a meal together, then I can safely wish you and yours a Merry Christmas - I'm not Christian and have many friends with totally unrelated religions, but they still get together and have a meal on Christmas (or Boxing) Day.
In the Skunkworks world, religion is totally different, so they may have celebrated holidays, but you can guarantee they will be very different to the human religions, since they are devoid of humans (who were tasty and vulnerable).

Yes, can visualise that - I'm making noooo claims!

Yes, even the spelling was weird... but agree - normal can be boring and I hate being boring (almost as much as I hate being bored).
Scrapper, Black Dragon, suggesting you do something good and be good at what you do.
