Christmas Nonsense

The BBC had cut certain words out of a fairytale of new york when it was playing it on radio. I don't think I have to spell out what words were cut.

They've decided against it in the end, but was it for publicity or is it just how the world is these days.

I understand that some words are offensive to some people, but commonsense (if it still exists), should prevail.

Mind your language

Since I left school I have become really interested in learning languages. I have done some German and Norwegian which I really enjoyed. I intend to do some more classes later in the year.

Check out the BBC website. There is a whole section on learning languages. The French one is great. It will help most people. I've had a quick look at the German one too.

Is there anything that site doesn't do?

Big Train

Back in the late 90's there was a stetch comedy show on BBC called Big Train. It was written by the writers of Fr. Ted (Arthur Mathews and Graham Linehan).

We've had a good laugh in the office today at the clips below.

Enjoy.
