Get the message
Christmas is coming, the Duke is getting fat. And so is Captn for that matter. But we’re not worried, for life is good here at PRSD towers.
So fulla the festive spirit are we, that we’ve put together an alternative Christmas message for your delectation. Yes, you can choose between the mad old lady on BBC1, the moderate Muslim lady on Channel Four (quelle controversial!) or you can log on to your friendly neighbourhood PRSD to see what we’ve got to say.
We don’t wanna big it up too much (for a fuggen change), but our message is,
as you would expect, quite interesting. And it’s got Jesus in it! Step back in amazement!
So why not make a date with the PRSD at 3pm on December 25? After all, that’s what Christmas is all about. Kinda.

Crimbo selecta
More than a third of citizens in the People’s Republic are determined to show how pinko they are this crimbo by buying ethical prezzies. That’s according to a survey by Friends Provident, the founder of the UK’s first ever retail ethical fund, Stewardship.
Nearly a quarter of shoppers believe their friends and family will appreciate ethical gifts while over a fifth are determined to like, really make a difference this festive season.
Indeed, some two-thirds of South West shoppers plan to spend up to £100 on ethical gifts this year. At the top of South West shoppers’ Christmas list are charity Christmas cards, with ethically produced or organic food and clothing also proving a popular present choices.
It is not only gifts that people are thinking about in ethical terms this Christmas, ethically produced consumables are also in demand in the People’s Republic. Throughout the festive period, people will be buying Fairtrade or organic chocolates, organic produce and more than a quarter will buy a free range or organic turkey.
Unfortunately, all that good work will soon be undone by the amount of electricity used to keep the TV blaring throughout Christmas day. Still, it’s the thought that counts, ain’t it?
