      Empirical observation and this unrepresentative sample suggest you might be right.

                Which tradition?

                Grandad farting after he ate all the sprouts?

                Granny feeling queezy after drinking the sherry?

                Trivial pursuit?

                Family feuds?

                Burnt turkey? (I prefer roast goose, but perhaps I’m just a posh git)

                  If people can't be even bothered maintaining the tradition of Christmas then maybe they should stop complaining about the "erosion" of British traditions

                    Ah, but then couldn’t we return to pre-christian rituals like dancing naked around big bonfires and celebrating the winter solstice with ale and sex?
