Flag target provokes racism probe

A pub landlady who used a Welsh flag as target practice at a St George's Day event has been questioned by police over alleged racism.
Angie Sayer pinned it up at the New Inn in Wedmore, Somerset, for customers to take pot shots at with bows and arrows.

She claimed the Welsh flag was the only large image she could find to "slay the dragon" like the patron saint.

The complainant is understood to have reported her as a joke, which backfired when police arrived to question her.

Mrs Sayer said she had not intended to offend anyone by using the Welsh dragon during the event on 23 April

"We used the flag because it was the only dragon we could find. We had people in here from Wales when we had the competition and they seemed to be enjoying it," she said.

"A week later the police came round to say they had an anonymous complaint that I was a racist and wanted to know if I knew who it was."

An Avon and Somerset police spokesman said an officer visited her informally, believing the complaint to be a prank, and that no formal objection had been made.

the new pish-nausea advert can't be racist because

a. the welsh are white
b. the welsh aren't a race, they're a species
c. err that's it.

Turn your echoe off Threaded you sound like you are in the bath, oh tulip, that is an image I don't need.

Haggis are limited to the direction of travel due to the odd lengths of their legs which is an evolutionary thing due to the steepness of the slopes they live on.

Yes they'd like you to believe that.

What you don't see is the yearly haggis-docking in the highlands.
Groups of men chasing these small animals round the glens, and when they catch them they lop off half of the front and back left legs (the long-left-legged-haggis is a myth).
All in the name of high-cuisine. Shocking I call it.

Outraged of Osthlethwaite.

Everyone one

Everyone one knows Haggis are Scottish animals, there are left handed ones which run clockwise round the mountains and right handed ones that run anti-clockwise.

This is true. I have seen them. I even saw one running in a straight line (must have been ambidextrous).

He said, "The joke isn't on the Welsh, but on people who'd think noodles are mined in Wales. It's the same as people thinking haggis are Scottish animals."
