Three more track days coming up

Time for a pre-Xmas blast?

---

Oulton Park

Track day club MotorSport Vision has added three last-minute dates to its calendar.

• When: Saturday 17 December
• Where: Oulton Park, Cheshire

 

• When: Sunday 18 December
• Where: Snetterton, Norfolk

Ted

Do you care that your homepage headline says "Xmas", rather than the full title, of Christmas?

I mean, there are many wasted letters and mistyped words in the world of the keyboard as it is, without we have to be too particular about not wasting a few necessary letters.
Christmas is Christmas, after all.

Would it be right for us to type 'Hkah' for Hannukah, or 'Rdan' for Ramadhan? Let's not worry about 'hkah' or r-dan', cos you do get my point?

So, how about it, Ted, can we have Christmas in future on Pheads?

Your point, Number 6?

I shant joust with the learned as, being a simple guy, I'd get knocked off my horse
every time.

My view is, why drop the name of Christ from Christmas, just to prove how clever we can be? I dont see "xmas" being used in the manner you describe. I see it as Christmas for those who do not recognise Christ. Which is ok, too.

I just wonder why it is being used so much.

Which just confirms what I said in my opening post :

" I mean, there are many wasted letters and mistyped words in the world of the keyboard as it is, without we have to be too particular about not wasting a few necessary letters.
