Public holiday - State funeral

[carmanmemoranda]

I often work on public holidays, does that make me an anti-monarchist.
What about the emergency services, are they anti-monarchists?
What about all the essential workers, are they all anti-monarchists?

You do talk some daft rubbish sometimes.

I'm still waiting to see how principled he is about christmas.

He's probably totally unaware of the origin of Christmas.
I think it's an amazing coincidence that Jesus was born on 25th December.

Emergency services and essential workers normally work bank holidays, don’t they? Surely it’s written into their contract with time off in lieu. What are public holidays to do with the monarchy in any case?

Man wondering if he can have a swan now

A MAN is wondering if he is allowed to have a swan now or if they have immediately passed to King Charles.

A MAN is wondering if he is allowed to have a swan now or if they have immediately passed to King Charles.

Nathan Muir, from Nailsworth, would like to know if the long-necked waterfowl are going spare and if he can take one home from his local river as a pet.

Muir said: “Everyone knows the Queen owned all the swans, but is Charles really going to want them? Her Royal Highness was a well-known animal lover, whereas he’s more into hippy **** like homeopathy and organic farming.

“Also, he’s going to be too busy learning how to be King to bother faffing around with birds. He’s got to practice his wave and train himself to stop trying to influence government policy and saying weird things about tampons.

“So I’ll just nab a swan from the stream round the back of Tesco and take it home for the pond in my garden. It’ll look well classy next to the novelty nude garden gnome.
“I know it might attack me, but, now the Queen’s gone, am I allowed to whack it on the beak with a shoe if it does? Only seems fair.”

are you religious ?

As in do I go to church? No, but I live in a Christian country. Would you ask that question to a Muslim, Sikh, Hindu or a Jew?

How the heck would they know if you're a Muslim or not? Most people in the UK aren't Christians after all. What a silly way to phrase the question.

So why ask me - how the heck would he know I’m not a Muslim, Sikh, Hindu or Jew?

Its amazing the questions I’m asked on here about my religion, my politics, my job, my tax affairs etc etc but feck me, the minute I ask someone anything, even their first name, their job, what car they drive or what county they live in I become a 'creepy stalker'. Double standards or what!

You miss the point, they asked that question not knowing if you were a Muslim, Jew or Jedi.

So of course they would.

Feck me upside down!
You're a disgrace to human dna!
How can one person be such a cretin to make a fool of himself?
Three characters all singing the same song, all using the same grammar, same punctuation, same vocabulary, same arguments and same ignorance.
It's like the holy trinity: 3 in 1, all the same.
Just for your information, there is no doubt that Jesus existed.
The Romans had the bad habit of writing everything down.
Then whether he was who he said it was can be disputed, but saying that he is a fictional character is the same as saying that the earth is flat.

Burger me! It isn't? WTF! Well that's the Lancashire Flat Earth Society round robin gone for a Burton.

Do you understand why the question was asked? If not, come back when you have thought about it .

It was, are you religious? It doesnt matter what religion !

The Romans did document things, which makes it odd that there's more evidence of the loch Ness monster than Jesus.

Nothing recording him written within his supposed lifetime has ever been found. Ignoring the Bible then the closest is a quick reference to a rumour from 60 years after his so called death and is widely believed to have been tampered with by the church.
