I dont think I would be very happy if one of my children went there, considering the ongoing problems around Europe..

Anybody remember "Twizzle" in the 50's ?

Wasn't there a character called Chalkie the White Golliwog ?

Mamy...if chalk was black instead of white, I am fairly certain that we would have learned our letters from whiteboards instead !




eh?

[Jackdaw33]

No, Mikey, it's 'if ifs and ANS', not 'ands', an being an old word for 'if'.

TWR, I don't and never have pussy footed around - I treat the people I meet politely and say what I feel as and when I need to.

If you seriously think classroom furniture,jam jar adornments , town names etc etc are changed because black or Asian people complain , I think you are mistaken.

Thanks jackdaw .........My Gran used the phrase a lot when I was a lad, and its a long time since I heard it !

Thanks v-e , utterly ridiculous to change it after 'one or two' complaints and equally ridiculous for anyone to complain in the first place.

Mam, I posted this before, a local lad who ordered a taxi, the lad was a bit over the odds got into the taxi and was greeted with white Bsds, so Geroge this person called the drive a Black Basd, George ended up in prison overnight, that's my lot.x

[Jackdaw33]

What about 'Baa Baa Green Sheep' from the 80s?

[agchristie]

v_e - utterly crazy. Just checked that the Irish football club 'Crusaders' are still named as such!

[TWR]

Brandy time, Tar ra.

[Mamyalynne]

Yes I remember about George, he's quite a character - bad do that was.


Never come across 'Green Sheep' personally , was always the original both with my children and my grandchildren too.

[Mamyalynne]

Enjoy TWR.x

Did you mean 'on' TW?

Talbot, the "J"s, I think, refer to the now defunct JollyJog.
