The end of Spotted Dick?

Recommended Posts

i love my nans spotted dick, (not a tranny grandpa) its perfect made with xtra cinnamon, and diced apples, bit of custard... makes sitting through the slop she calls a sunday dinner worth while...

 

also my local is simply called "The Cock" (formerly The Cock Hotel) which is aptly titled when you meet most of the regulars...

Count down for The Mail to report this story.

 

Predictions about what they will get wrong:

 

1. The name has been changed by the council (no it hasn't, the canteen staff decided to rename it. The Telegraph adds to this confusion by referring to the guilty parties as 'officials' in the opening line, which make them sound like high ranking bureaucrats)

2. It's 'political correctness gone mad' (again, Telegraph quotes guy who has half the story. Nothing to do with political correctness, just canteen staff fed up with hearing dick jokes over and over again)

3. The name has been changed to avoid causing offense (no suggestion anyone was offended).

It's almost like you have a crystal ball.
