Thats a good point, Rocky. Clowns are weird and coulrophobia is the official name given to clown phobia. I wonder if that includes P&J? Hateful creatures are P&J and I never understood it. As a child I found them scary.

As usual with one of K's post you should always look for the whole truth. P&J is not being banned, Barry council who were paying £2500 for a local festival including this particular show is withdrawing its funding for this show as it (according to them) goes against the council's view on domestic violence. I can't find any mention of subversive K, perhaps you could point us in the direction of where you found this claim?

If you agree with the council not paying for a P&J show or not is another discussion but P&J is not 'banned' it is just not being paid for. Surley the organisation who is paying for something should be able to say what it want it's money spent on? (note the question mark)

Well anyway, whatever, please do not contact the World's press that I took away the grandson's toy cars because they were about to bash each other over their heads with them, as I wish to get the caravan out of storage and pack it up.  We're off to Hereford on Wednesday, and do not want to leave the countryHappy

Then we will see them banning Bugs Bunny and Batman and what about Robin Hood films.  War films and Westerns will be next.They all feature violence

The PC brigade need to take a reality check.

There are many, many individuals that need to take a reality check, as has oft been said-'it's a forum, not real life'LaughingLaughing
