I didn't trust myself to head out last Friday and be able to pack and head to Cork the following day. So watched the Manky league match on BBC Wales at home.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03238749613615582511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11594431.post-89579640843120399822008-11-27T19:24:00.000+00:002008-11-27T19:24:00.000+00:00Lol! you tell it like it is dont ya Bock!Lol! you tell it like it is dont ya Bock!Stephenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15425555341439157265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11594431.post-30870266206529057082008-11-27T19:23:00.000+00:002008-11-27T19:23:00.000+00:00I mean, I'll tell him he's ugly.(You listening, Da...I mean, I'll tell him he's ugly.<BR/><BR/>(You listening, Dan?

My boyfriend, as you know, has incredibly curly hair, and we have been the subject of serious hostility. Loads of 'people' have screamed things at us, 'get your hair cut, Jack Black, Afro man', all sorts of shizz and some people just point and laugh. It just shows off their severe lack of education and fear of anything different. Hair can be quite scary you know. But in Cork, don't think anyone really notices. That's why I'm glad we moved to London as well, you could walk buck naked down Carnaby Street and no-one would say anything. Am afraid the old attitude of unenlightened Ireland is still very strong, but surprising in the young people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11594431.post-79839826553528371392008-11-25T20:55:00.000+00:002008-11-25T20:55:00.000+00:00Ah they're great fun.
