I'm trying to think of what I can write, which won't just get me a brush off reply.

Lest we forget...an innocent man tortured and murdered for his faith.
How very British.

Oh I wondered why everyone was calling it Bengali night when I thought it was Bonfire night! Duh! Thought I'd got the dates wrong or something!

And all those crazy cards I got when I thought it was Christmas saying 'Happy Winterval'. And what was going on in the shops this year? No irritating Christmas songs...no Christmas trees anywhere? Why was nobody interested in having a Christmas day this year? Oh yeah I forgot it must have been banned by the Labour party so that we wouldn't offend muslims.......

Oh sorry getting my wires crossed again......this is what only happens in 'news'papers.....

I never take a blind bit of notice of any PC crap, I call things what I like, I fly flags when I like. The arses in white hall can say what they like, it makes no difference just ignore them and get on with life.
