Re: Fairground ride imported for Mayor making weekend in May
 

I know, I'm always very concious of asking for a black coffee these days in case I offend someone. It's daft I know but I can imagine some people being upset by that.

This was the whole point of my original comment, it is political correctness gone mad. What is good enough for one should be taken as a whole not subdivided, divided & still end up with the wrong sum that some will swear is right even if wrong. Simple answer is to rewrite the Race Relations Act so it is universal. After all don't other laws & regs get updated-this one never has been because of fear of upsetting certain parties.

This is worse than I thought, personally I always speak a little louder when I use the word black in public just in case I do offend someone and believe me it's never an asian who gives me the eye, come on wake up before it's too late.

Unfortunatly voting for one of the main political parties will never get this done they haven't got the guts, so where does that leave us?

Re: Fairground ride imported for Mayor making weekend in May
 

You're right, it's the do gooders that are offended by stuff like that. Most of the time it's actually an insult to black people to think that they are so sensitive that they would be offended by it.

Re: Fairground ride imported for Mayor making weekend in May
 

Exactly!

But when is this mayor making do actually taking place then? (Just thought I'd get back to the subject :lol: )

i was on broadwat today and noticed that not only was broadway a bit narrow for such a ride but all the way down the middle of broadway there are lamp posts every X amount of meters and payphones

are we going to need to remove some lamp posts as well to make it fit at extra expense

Re: Fairground ride imported for Mayor making weekend in May
 

Presumably it will be the middle of May sometime as I think the mayoral year runs from beginning of May. It usually coincides with local elections and the mayor is 'made' soon after.

I don't think they've used their tapemeasures Chav.

Looks like we're going to miss all the fun because we'll be away for the second half of May (14th onwards)

Re: Fairground ride imported for Mayor making weekend in May
 

So, who is going to be our mayor from May onwards?

Re: Fairground ride imported for Mayor making weekend in May
 

dont worry i will be glued at the side of the ride with my camera to get a good shot of the first carrage to smash through woolworths window ;)

Re: Fairground ride imported for Mayor making weekend in May
 

May be they're using it as a way of clearing Broadway ready for the rebuilding - sort of a demolition service. They'll install this thing, it'll smash the lamposts down and break the paving and then they'll start putting the hanging baskets and benches in to make it look good again.
