I wish I could edit the title of this topic to correct the typo :(
The Writers' Group I belong too often holds writing exercises. One we've used a few times is for each person to write down a set number of words (typically three). The words are then mixed up and randomly reallocated. Each recipient then has to write a scene using their allocated words.

And UK MPs not being allowed to mention Scunthorpe in e-mails.
That's one I can agree with!
Do you remember Spike Milligan's Q4? Mrs Hilda Gronk of Scunthorpe was part of the intro.
A few years ago I was in Malaysia and all emails I sent to one friend suddenly started disappearing ... because his email address was at 'grapevine.com.au'.
What part of that was offensive?

I assume it was because of some government directive.

I get it. The Malaysian economy is highly dependent on palm oil, so anything suggesting the superior rapeseed oil has to be censored.

LOL. Perhaps too, the Malaysian government - which was tossed out at the election a few weeks ago - was highly dependent on corruption, and their euphemism for that was 'oil our palms'.
