I have a confession to make: I don’t like Christmas crackers. I don’t like the loud noise, I don’t like the paper hats and I don’t like the usually gimcrack toys. BUT I do love puns and jokes, good, bad, in-between. So here are some Christmas quips and winter witticisms for you now, provided in a quiet voice, with no sartorial requirements or plastic tat. Writers and readers, one and all, let’s play with\/on words!<\/span><\/p>\n

Why has Santa been banned from sooty chimneys?<\/b>
Carbon footprints<\/p>\n

What falls at the North Pole but never gets hurt?<\/b>
Snow<\/p>\n

What\u2019s every parent\u2019s favourite Christmas Carol?<\/b>
Silent Night<\/p>\n

What do you call a snowman with a six pack?<\/b>
An abdominal snowman<\/p>\n

What do you get when you cross a snowman and a vampire?<\/b>
Frostbite<\/p>\n

What says \u2018Oh-Oh-Oh\u2019<\/b>
Santa walking backwards<\/p>\n
