The popular animation Postman Pat (me and my little brothers were huge fans) was sold to Japanese broadcasters but was put on hold because of Postman Pat having 3 fingers and a thumb. The way his hand was shaped was (unknown to the British creators, I hope) a Yakuza gang sign/gesture and it was thought that this would cause upset in Japanese households. It was eventually released quite a while after the show was purchased.

Memo

To Cammo

From Andy Coulsono


Just some thoughts on some risque words/phrases you might want to drop into various media opportunities.

See what you think.


'Knob Jockey' - Loose Women.

'Fellatrix' - Today, John Humphrys.

'Jizz bucket' - The One Show.

'C*ntbollox' - Top Gear, this could be risky but it's massive so chance it.

'C*ntbollox' - That new show of Richard & Judy's, safe enough I reckon.

'Spunk Monkey' - GMTV.

'Filthy Whores' - BBC Breakfast.

'Wankel Rotary Engine' - This Morning.

'Completely Shagged Out' - Bargain Hunt Celebrity Tat Find.


Hope these meet with your approval DC.

And once again may I thank you for taking me on as your as your publicity maven. Me and the family are so grateful.

What with the 'other lot' not having a great time with a former hack with the initials 'AC'.

My, I'm in such a good mood today!

Hi KalamityKel,

Roughly 30 doors are knocked on for every hour of canvassing for issues. Roughly 15% of those 30 doors knocked on have some one in. So roughly 5 people an hour actually talked to.

We've tried evenings, Saturday and Sundays during the day. Sunday evenings. We have'nt tried Saturday evenings as our families do like to see us occassionally.

As we have day jobs we have'nt tried mon-fri during the day time. I keep my work holiday for family holidays, looking after the kids during school holidays and occassional daytime councillor engagements. This doesn't seem unreasonable.


If you'd ever like us to knock on your door say where and when.


Regards james



Says it all really dont it!

my point is not that canvassing is not done but the response - rather a case of the attitude taken where it is felt necessary to explain quite a simple thing in a simple way to someone they are clearly judging to be... well simple (no keep your agreements to yourselves on that one!) It's too funny really but I guess many with similar views to such persons would not understand.

It is a typical, pointless response from a representative of the same party where they feel they must have the last word.

    • There's not enough people talking about this - I've often worried about it too  One busy staff's mistakes will not make my pockets lighter, thank you very much. Thanks Sue and all the best for the new year. 
    • I don't want to name a shop, but I have twice at this busy time of year had an issue, and yesterday was overcharged when buying a number of small things. If you are using a shop which doesn't give an itemised receipt, or doesn't give a receipt at all, just be aware that it might be a good idea to check that you are not paying over the odds (and if using cash, that you are given the right change for what you handed over). When staff are busy they might make mistakes.
    • As I had a moan on here about the truly abysmal Christmas meal we had at The Cherry Tree last year, I am redressing the balance by saying we had a really excellent Christmas meal at Franklins last night. Every course was absolutely delicious and  really well cooked. The staff were lovely despite being exhausted and run off their feet. In particular, my sea bass was a large portion and cooked to perfection, in stark contrast to the small dried up portion The Cherry Tree provided, from which I was barely able to scrape a teaspoonful of flesh (that is not an exaggeration). And our Franklins meal cost less than half what we paid at The Cherry Tree (to be fair, that was on Christmas Day so the Cherry Tree costs would have been higher, but that doesn't excuse the appalling quality meal). Thank you again to Franklins for restoring our faith in eating out at Christmas!
