Spotted Dick removed from council canteen menu

Pudding renamed Spotted Richard

At least we don't have any members on Accyweb who would resort to getting cheap laughs from a pudding.

of all teh things that need sorting out in teh world they came up with the idea of changing the name of a desert

just 1 more good idea like this and they may well accomplish world peace

are the books dick turin going to be renamed in council libarys ?

mind you i hear the recipe for spotted richard is less salty tasting than spotted dick

That is ridiculous! What an absurd thing to do. I'm sure no one would complain about the name of a pudding!

No I was right first time Jen, a dick heads a dick head which ever way you look at it, and because I'm not PC either

I notice that this nonsense occured in Wales, which is only to be expected of that place. It is government policy there that all official literature - which includes canteen menus - are tranlated into the local venacular. The Welsh for Spotted Dick, is I believe, 'Spottio Dickio'. I do not know, however, what the translation of the new name will be. It will, as usual, cost money - which the boyos there won't mind, because it is the English taxpayer who will be forking it out.
