I'd vote for you Bryan. The story today about the kids and the tinsel is PC gone mad and I put up with enough rubbish about PC at work, like loads of others I suppose - Civil Service!!!!! We can't even call each other by nick names any more would you believe, our new manager is offended by it. Never mind that the person actually liked her nick name. We have to be very careful these days, watching out backs just in case we say something that some prat doesn't think is PC. Whoops, that wasn't very PC of me. We have to get real sooner or later.

Bryan You have a good point but to be honest I don't think its the foreigners that have a problem, it always seems to be the do- gooder PC people they who have no idea what they are talking about. They actually show themselves up as idiots in the end. I believe anyone living in anyone's else's Country should respect that country's traditions, as Sheila says "when in Rome..." What is needed is for people to stand up to these PC's and celebrate it even more tackier and outward to show it won't be easily killed off. Right I'm off me soap box now its FRIDAY NIGHT LOL>> Pat x

Bryan my sentiments exactly, I am not racists and have friends of all colours and religions. I just expect to be able to celebrate Christmas and live in my own country as I have always done. Shaz x

RIGHT ON Brian

shaz,ime very tempted to stand as an independent in the next election...THE ANTE PC PARTY...but i would be labelled ,as national front or something similar...which is wrong,i just believe,this is our island,if you wish to live here..welcome..but accept our traditions...if you refuse,then go home to your country! just my opinion,if it offends anyone,i appologise! bryan.

Linda... banned the Nativity??? How unfair is that ... all my kids used to come home requesting tea towels for the heads of the shepherds!! Where the hell are we going to find red capes and sharp teeth?? Its unfair for the kids too I mean there are only 4 characters in Little Red Riding hood what will the rest of the kids play?? In the Nativity everyone gets a part, Mary, Joseph, Angel Gabriel, Innkeeper, 3 wise men, 10 sheperds and 10 more angels! Shaz x

PMSL I couldn't figure out what all this was, until I read the thread below. Well done Shaz, I hope you have your tinsel earrings and you will be wearing your tinsel garland around you at dinner table like my daughter makes us do??? We have tinsel everywhere and I was saying only the other day, blimey they do so many styles of the stuff now. Its cost me a small fortune this year as we needed to replace some of the old stuff, my daughter was going from one lot to the other, and my 6 foot tree loaded with probably far too much is staying my daughter and son did. So I aint getting rid of nothing for anyone either. LOL Pat x

How can anyone accuse us of being PC when we are christians preparing to celebrate the birth of a JEW

When in Rome and all that..my tree is staying put

It didnt come out quite right up there so I am sticking it down here!! LOL I dont care if I'm not PC I'm sending xmas wishes to everyone from me I'm hanging decorations on my xmas tree and my nativity scene is in on display for everyone to see. And if I've been offensive well all that I can say is that in all my 36 years I have loved Christmas Day and I intend to celebrate with baubles and with tinsel and anyone who takes offence can just p*** off an whistle!! Shaz xx

Good for you Big Shaz, got to agree with you. It's all getting out of hand these days. Do your own thing and enjoy! Christine
