You can say anything, but you can't say that!

Another Friday and Saturday night in. No wonder I’m watching big brother. All of it has been blown completely out of proportion though. When people argue, and one person is white and the other not, racism is always mentioned by someone. The only offensive comments were made by the thick scouser Danielle. Now it is acceptable I can say thick scouser, despite this may be prejudice against people from Merseyside. If I were to refer to Shilpa as the same replacing scouse with the place where she came from it could be interpreted as racist. PC worlds going mad and soon you won’t be able to make any comments about anyone. Still wonder if Teddy will get rid of his girlfriend as the kick racism out of football campaign is being maintained.

Saints got a good win at QPR. A few beers were had before and after in the Bushranger pub next to Goldhawk Road tube. An odd place, with a long thin bar downstairs, they seem to be trying to cater for food lovers and make it look like a trendy gastropub, yet they have screens all over the place showing sport! We went upstairs in a spacious square room. Managed to get Rasiaks goal filmed on my phone although you couldn’t tell what was going on as its quite small. QPR is the only ground I know that has inflatable Pritt sticks on the pitch at half time whilst young kids show off their skills dribbling between them and having a one on one with the opposing goalie (also a young kid).

Sunday saw Arsenal beat Man Utd. Thierry Henry was completely anonymous until he scored in the last minute, yet somehow Sky named him as Man Of The Match. Presumably just so they could interview him.

As January comes to a close, hopefully my social life will pick up so will be able to report on more interesting things such as gigs and pubs.
