    I said something here earlier this afternoon but obviously got distracted and forgot to post it! :rolleyes:

    I agree it's the best Christmas song ever ... having just listened to it again on the radio here ... so must be popular! [​IMG]

    I don't know what the problem was with the BBC and, had I known, would have probably ignored it anyway.

    Thanks, my dearest, I enjoyed it. [​IMG]

    And ... a Merry Christmas to you all ... or ... Feliz Natal para tudo. xx

    So, whats wrong with calling someone a bundle of sticks? :confused:
    Or a meatball, not nice, granted, but hardly worth banning a record for.

    When I was young we had a faggot and pea shop close to us, you used to take your basin or whatever and buy 2 shillings worth. Going back to the Beeb, I remember in the sixties they would automatically ban songs from British reggae singer Judge Dread. His songs were not obviously obscene but were based on double entendres.
