hey no, I wasn't bollocking you or anyone I think. I was pretty much saying I find it an offensive word too, as its always been associated as such in my head. I was just wondering if it was reclaimable, as I can't think of hearing any positive usage for it in the past.
Personally, I don't feel that comfortable with Pole, Slav, mussie or any other kind of shortened term either myself (as I get visions of Daily Mail covers). Though, they bother me less so than the P word granted, if only cos I've also often heard people of that background using those words to describe themselves, I've not heard many Pakistanis use the word.
Though the links here, particularly Mercians are educating me on it.
