That's a bit much. I mean, I wouldn't wish Luton on anyone.

It's not as much of a sthole as Birmingham.

Yes, Luton is classy compared to Brum(hole).

so can we get back to calling christmas christmas ? instead of winter festival as the wail readers have forced upon us ?

Assuming that you mean The Mail, they consistently oppose this sort of thing. Juding by the content of my MILs mail I'm surprised it isn't the official PH newspaper, it almost reads like PH sometimes.

And it really could only be in one place.....As not many other places have the money. That place is insane inside.

I love the whole UAE "biggestbestevah" thing... Gold vending machines. Why? I bet their Christmas Day lunch menu is a laugh- sparrow stuffed with beluga caviar inside a rare Patagonian snowgoose draped with swarovski necklaces...

Not sure but I think "tacky" comes into play somewhere.
