Thread Name: Delilah 'Banned' by Welsh Rugby Union
Subject: RE: Delilah 'Banned' by Welsh Rugby Union
I `ad that Gwyllam Thomas from the Welsh Rugby Union my cab the other day. `e was carrying an enormous ring binder box. It was full of something `cos `3 was `aving difficulty in lugging it around.
I said, " Morning Taff, what `ave you got there? Entries for the next Eisteddford?"
`e said, "Oh no Jim Boyo. It`s a pile of songs we `ave to consider banning at the Cardiff stadium rugby matches. I`ve just spent a couple of days in Tin Pan Alley going through all the material that mentions cruelty to women, animals, murder, executions and all manner of nasties."
I said,"Oh. That`s what banning the choirs from signing "Delilah" was all about. Is that it?"
`e said, "Yeah, We don`t want to be seen as a group of unthinking people, not taking other`s feelings into account."
I said, "Pull the other one Taff. You`re already mired in accusations of mysogony and all sorts of "isms" found in corporate life. You`ve just pulled this rabbit out of the `at as a attempt to "virtue signal" and take the pressure off!!"



Whaddam I Like??
