I heard that no school were allowed to even mention Christmas anymore

must stop watching GB News!!!

(I did take the youngest Grand Kid to see Santa at his school a week or so ago so I know that was bo***)

I like GB News and similar - they talk the same language and hold the same views as me.

Well an evening in the local A&E, and not for the usual reason, or anything close.
Attempted mugging/assaulted by an electric bike rider who mounted the pavement, riding straight at me, stopping just in front of me.
Stepped back and slightly to the the kerbside. As I did this, he walked the bike closer. Left arm stretched out to grab something, and with his hand like it was the only thing he wanted was my neck. Got my arm in the way to stop it, the next I knew we were both on the opposite side of the road. He'd pulled me across two lanes of moving traffic.
Whether it was the change of direction by him that made one or both of us lose hold I don't know.

Reported to the police, via a phone outside the station. From there onwards to the A&E.
Bruised, sore but no real damage done.

Sh!t that’s awful.
