To think that this is political correctness gone mad???!!!

[rdmommy]

elc have removed the pig from the happy land farm set as it may offend some religious groups!- i.e muslim and jewish. so am i wrong to suggest that maybe we should not have farm sets because it could offend veggies, the cows could offend hindus and maybe the sheep could offend the welsh???

this is bloody stupid... our town renamed christmas as fucking winterval!!!!!

And I want to know where the pigs went ..
I've already given the obvious explanation.

And one with a herd of cows and an AI man.

Jam then cream, you gentile heathen infidels! Otherwise the cream gets too warm and runny. The jam is insulating, innit!

Annie, some of these poor deluded fools eat cold scones. I know, its sad.

Cold scones? But, but, but.... why?

God, people dredging up that Winterval crap annoys me. Including Christmas in a season of festivals under the umbrella term of Winterval is NOT the same thing as renaming Christmas.

If it's true that you don't get pigs in a farm set, that is silly though.

And jam, then cream.

Jam, then cream and Llammas for all!

I don't want a llama, thanks! But I'll take extra scones with jam then cream.

Annie - maybe cream then jam is a gentile thing?

Must be.

Nobody has yet given me permission to undermine Waitrose.

It's jam then cream. Otherwise the jam falls off the cream and anyway it looks silly.

My MIL told me that they weren't allowed to have Christmas lights in Bradford any more. She told me this while standing in Foster Square underneath a sodding great light up sign saying Happy Christmas. ANd she is, while admittedly as mad as a box of frogs, a well intentioned, reasonably well informed woman.

In my case, jam them cream is a Humanist thing!

It's jam then cream. You have to get the jam off the spoon and adhering to the scone, and this is well nigh impossible if there's a blob of cream there already. The cream can be lightly dolloped on top of the jam.

I wish I knew how to link to pictures because I have found a lovely one of a mini pig drinking a cup of tea. I'm sure the scone is just out of shot.

well sneeker, by the power invested in me by the not so-secret MN Jewish/Muslim conspiracy group that I elbowed my way into, I grant you permission to undermine Waitrose. Only not too much.

seeker sorry

riven - Please would you use your special Muslim-powers to get rid of Peppa?

I find her twee voice so grating.

I'd be ever so grateful.

WTF?
I am jewish and my kids love peppa pig.
Just not to eat.

Haven't read the whole thread, but I bought a happy land farm recently and I wondered why there wasn't a pig, when there was a pig sty and a button that made pig noises.

I want my pig!

ahem. DD's pig.
