If we can manage to 'steer' conversation around to our 'usual' Friday/Saturday, I wonder if my suggesting that it's part of the Anglo-Saxon culture to binge-drink & become aggresive at the 'drop of a hat' (or more likely, a spilt pint??) will find favour??
Perhaps we should be more tolerant of them simply expressing their culture, and be accepting of their behaviour???
'L S-P', you should run that thought by your seniors :lol:

Not allowed to use 'chalk boards' - 'chalky' is insulting to black people.
Not allowed to use a 'flip-chart' - insulting to Philipinos so I was informed.
Anyone here from the Bradford area? Bradford MC have just started with a large poster campaign called 'I am Bradford'. The first poster (roadside billboard size) shows two ugly (imho) middle-aged lesbians and proclaims to the world that this is what Bradford is all about. The second (that I have seen) shows a Sikh chap astride a horse - no hard hat, just a turban looking like the last of the Bengal Lancers! Talk about sexual and racial stereotyping!
Disco Matt:
I maintain half of these things are made up by people who never even bother asking those they're trying to protect from offence whether they find it offensive in the first place...
Don't get me wrong. Racism needs to be fought. But nonsense like this doesn't do anything to help and is likely to make things worse as people get fed up with it.

Remember people... it's not "one-up-man-ship"... it's "one-up-person-ship"...
So to carry the logic to it's natural consequence...
Man = Person
therefor...
Chairman = Chairperson
But...
Woman = Woperson
Human = Huperson
Manual = Personual
Manoeuvre = Personoeuvre
Many = Persony
Commando = Compersondo (Who's gonna tell the hairy @sd Marine in the corner?!)
Need I go on...?!!! :lol:
