I saw a sign on a bus stop this morning saying christmas has been cancelled.
I take is all christmas products will now be removed from the shops.

thanks tony. I will let you have a day off from "the look" and any reference to goats for the day as reward.

Brimoan - apologies for digressing

Lol @ Daffy.

it's been on AB since 1627, Tilly... Why should we remember ye traitorous *** Fowkes with ye bonfires and upset ye dancing beares...

[mrs_overall]

I remember reading somewhere that AOG posted a question about it in 1628

[jno]

I know what Mr Fawkes' name was, though I spelt it in the manner of the time, G.u.i.d.o... can anyone think why that might have been asterisked?

I went shopping yesterday and even though it's only end of September there's stacks of Christmas stuff about.

[daffy654]

jno, that word is sometimes used as an insult to Italian (I think) men of a certain type. I'm sure the Urban Dictionary could explain it better.

[anneasquith]

the C word should be banned until december 1st. i may e.mail ED with my suggestion :)

[jno]

I've looked it up and it seems to mean an Italian-American who wears too much hair gel. I can't begin to imagine why AB has banned this one.

[Tilly2]

And the 'f' word should be banned as well.

[humbersloop]

which f word tilly?

[Tilly2]

The word we've been discussing.fireworks

[jno]

not fandango, I hope... I couldn't bear life without fandangos
