Re: The PANTO. Is this the begining of the end of another British Tradition.
know this is not pantomime but what about this for people imposing their way of life on us the British people...................
.
. And what is the Government doing about it. ? Crabs Nada as usual. they are afraid of losing the thingy vote.
And those thingies will only serve half of that sentence and be back on the streets more radicalised than ever.
They wont even deport them back to a land of thingies where they should be happy wallowing in their own crap.
In Gaol, thingies get better treatment and food and more priviliges than the ordinary brit prisoner. That is why they convert more brits in gaol than outside. So these thingies do not mind going to gaol. it is no punishment for them. They actuallly enjoy it.

Brian here is their names,they dont name a third individual I wonder why.Jordan Horner,Ricardo McFarlane and an unnamed man is how the paper puts it.If this individual wont give his name he should remain in gaol until he does. The marine did'nt have the chance of being an unnamed man.

Our A-list careers? THEY'RE BEHIND US! After their TV heyday, these stars are now starring in a panto near you. But with paydays of up to £500,000 who can blame them?
- Henry Winkler, David Hasselhoff and Bonnie Langford all starring in panto
- Majority of this year's entertainers look set to pocket six-figure sums

Careful Kong- overuse of the word 'thingie' may result in some learned cleric in Boltonistan breaking the code ( see an earlier post re Bletchley Park) and having the word outlawed. I disagree with your opening remark that your post wasn't related to pantomine- it is and they're behind you.

Re: The PANTO. Is this the begining of the end of another British Tradition.
Panto's behind us? Oh no it's not!
FOR MANY, Christmas would not be Christmas without one. The annual pantomime outing continues to draw the crowds: the young, the old and those in-between.
So what is it that keeps the pantomime (which in Greek means roughly 'we can act everything') alive? The secret to the success of pantomime is an ability to evolve and remain fresh by including cultural, topical, political and musical references of the day, say its writers. Their mantra is: tradition balanced with innovation.

There will always be pantomime as long as question time remains in parliament and the EU government continue to rule.
