this country is going mad with political correctness as i found out to the extreme today.. my wife is a headteacher for bolton local authority and today she had an email put on the censorship list for using banned words.. when she rang up the IT section they informed her she had used a swear word on the banned list.. she had written down the site of the next PTA meeting..chorlton cum-hardy golf club what will they ban next... clitheroe..scunthorpe.. !!!!!

God help those who have to write a letter to Penistone!

Trouble is, not only are the IT systems set up carelessly, but they're then expected to run automatically without an double-checking by a human.

That's how a newspaper not a thousand miles from Liverpool reported on a Swedish car called a Vulva and came within a whisker of printing an obituary to Dingo, Princess of Wales.

Spell-checkers! Don't you love 'em

I deal with plants (flowers) one of our bulbs is called canaliculatus... guess what... i couldn't access it on our own website to change the price on it... the IT blokes did make me say it several times before they stopped laughing and allowed the word... and by the way it's a variety of daffodil before anyone asks

Carrie203's profile picture shows her standing next to a road sign with a town called "Twatt" on it !!! Wonder what the memo looked like when the Local Council had to organise filling the Pot Holes in "Twatt"

There's a village in Austria called Fucking.
They had a vote a few years ago on whether to change the name, but decided to keep it. I can't even guess the problems it causes giving people your address.

There is a small town in Oregon where these PC comittee members might hold their meetings. I just put a photo on my profile of the local pub if you fancy a laugh!
