The clue was in the word emigrate My daughter wants to go to school in Accrington as she would feel more comfortable than the ones in Nelson. I also have more support available in Accrington than I do here.

Re: PC gone mad on birthday cards
Lets buy all the bog brushes we can lay our hands on lay into the PC nambies and bring back fun.
If we cant have fun with humorous cards then we are doomed doomed I say doomed.
(Spug's now sets of in search of an endless supply of second hand slightly soiled bog brushes to have a bit of fun. Listen for the squeals, of horror and shock that is.)
Any cards of support can be sent to me care of th local police in Falkirk.

Yes please.
It is daft that they are even thinking this shame on them. Sorry if I sound sarcastic but it real gets on my wick all the PC rubbish floating around.

Re: PC gone mad on birthday cards
I think all ths pc business is because people can't make the distinction between a friendly dig and a malicious insult.
If someone says to me in all seriousness that they think I wouldn't understand something because women can't understand complicated things then yes it's irritatng and aggravating even if it isn't as bad as being malicous, but if someone says "ya gret wooolly lump, use a bit of yer grey matter ya typical woman!" and we are both falling about laughing at the time because I haven't cottoned on to something obvious then the latter is natural humour and totally different. Heaven forbid that we should ever be told that it isn't allowed.

Re: PC gone mad on birthday cards
Part of the process of learning social skills is knowing how to adapt to various situations and to adapt to different people's sensitivity. Some people can take a joke and some can't - we all know who those people are and we wouldn't tell a risque joke in their presence. All these new regulations and rules are doing is limiting the development of personal social skills.

Re: PC gone mad on birthday cards
Sadly, I don't think anything surprises us any more where PC is concerned. The powers that be are so desperate not to offend anyone that we actually end up offending people!

Re: PC gone mad on birthday cards
The plebs at he Scottish Parliment are getting some right old stick over the Non Christmas Cards going out the Christmas. They sound like large useless business cards to me. PC strikes again dont send christmas cards depicting anything Christmasy you might offend 1 in 1,000,000 and we cant have that.
