I hope you noticed that it was Dudley today - in the West Midlands 
that is...

There are some councils (and I think Dudley has featured before) 
where PC has run beserk. It's a bit like some of the health & safety 
issues which sometimes get reported.

We have situations - and I think this is the one I am thinking of - 
where council staff have been instructed not to send out cards 
saying "Happy Christmas" but messages such as "Season's Greetings" 
or "Happy Midwinter Festival".

I think Pooh is currently sitting with Piglet up on the Ashdown 
Forest at the top of the Hundred Acre Wood plotting revenge.....
