Nanny, in the form of Lloyds Bank, has decreed that the words "widows" and "guinea pigs" are offensive.
Apparently "guinea pigs" may upset vegans, and "widows" may upset errmm..widows!
As such, Nanny has banned staff from using those words. Now this may be all very well and "virtuous", however there are two points worth noting:
1 I cannot foresee the circumstances that a bank employee would often need to speak about guinea pigs.
2 Lloyds owns Scottish Widows, as such the staff working there will really need to be able to use the word "widows"!
