Can I refer you to a post I made on page 29 of the Boris's Bar thread:


Quote:
Oi!

NO 'C' WORD DECORATIONS IN BORIS'S BAR WITHOUT MY SAY-SO!

If you're all very lucky, I might hang up one or two pieces of tinsel on 'C' word Eve.
End of story.

Seen on another forum


Quote:
Due to the passing into law of the Employment Equality (Religion or Belief) Regulations 2003 on 2/12/2003, All Xmas decorations and cards are hereby banned from the workplace.

As it is now seen that putting up a nude femail poster / calendar violates most work place equal opportunities regulations, it is now also deemed that putting up any material pertaining to any religion or any religious festival, can be seen as offensive and harrassment of those of other religions and none. The afore mentioned poster/ calendar and Xmas cards and decorations for legal purposes are teated in the same light.

This policy has been enforced in parts of the country now, and a good example to us all is Buckinghamshire County Council who banned a church from advertising their festive religious services at High Wycombe Library.

Well done and keep up the good work.
Looks like there will be no decorations as this is now ilegal.

Humbug Sticks - I'm going to send you and Kaz off to a destination very very far away where all the other anti-Christmas (and yes I refuse to use the C word BUT will put it in full) planners can join and celebrate together.


As for being illegal - who cares - I for one shall carry on anyway - and if I am charged (or any of my cohorts) I will arrange for a top notch barrister to represent us. At this time of the year when it is dull and miserable WE NEED something to look forwrad to. Still perhaps if we were found guilty we could have a community rehabilitation order involving making Boris's festive LOL

Had a thought all we need to do is remind Kaz just how big the profits were in the bar she manages last Christmas.

I was due for a vist from them last year, but they were booked on Virgin Rail and their train was delayed due to engineering works and they missed their connection. They rang up and were really sorry to have missed me. So far they have not found a window to re-do me as they are heavily booked up and there is talk of their jobs being transferred to a private agency.

Because you are a kind hearted soul really and Santa Claus has added a tick to list of good deeds for the year. Looks like he may be dropping a parcel down your chimney.

Oh no, that's not true, Rach. I would never do that to Santa!!!

I don't mind Xmas really (no, really!! ). What I DO mind is when all the shops are bursting full of everything to do with Xmas in bl**dy September!

I start off slowly at the beginning of December, and build up speed until I start my shopping about the 3rd week . . . . . never failed yet!

<marquee> 80 DAYS LEFT!</marquee>

I swear more people post on the forum when I'm not here or am I being paranoid? Perhaps I need a Kiss of Death thread all of my own

Oh btw ... We have the artificial Christmas trees up at work now "Jingle Bells"

That reminds me must get my little tree out from the filing cabinet - when anyone goes past it plays a Christmassy tune. But dont tell Kaz - she's put it in the bin. Promise not to put it on display yet, just give it a dusting.

Was that the tree I threw out back in May

It played the most awful cheesy musak

Remember

The new employment regulations about discrimination on the basis of faith means that all festive decorations are banned from the work place.

I don't make these rules up (see attached document)
