Bravo to Dally, he never fails to annoy the Sin Bin. Can't believe people still respond to him after all this time.

Thing is they respond with emotional claptrap rather than looking at things with an open mind.

Having spent most of Saturday in two hospital A&E departments, a number of things struck me:

1. When I used to go years ago you could see why people were there - broken limbs, blood eveywhere, etc. Nowadays, they are jam packed but not with that sort of case.
2. Mrs Dally thinks it's because doctors no longer do out of hours work and so people with minor ailments go to A&E.
3. White, middle class British types are under-represented - presumably because they are risk-averse, play by the rules, etc.
4. On Saturday evening the place we were at was rammed and Mrs D counted only 8 white people, 5 of whom were Polish. None of the staff were white and English. The one white nurse was Irish, all other nurses / doctors were from ethnic "minorities" (sic).
5. Many self-inflicted case - men dangerously drunk at 2.00pm, and vomitting, for example.

I read the first half page then gave up .
But .. and please excuse the drift ..

Mrs BR has recently got herself a place at a local university . Mature student placing . They had a 'meet and get to know eachother' night where all the mature students got to take their kids along .
Mrs BR took only our daughter along because our son was away on a school trip .
Our daughter was the only ginger child present on the night . Mrs BR thinks that is the reason that lil miss BR was allowed to win the pass-the-parcel and musical-chairs games .
She does not think that it is because out of 23 children at the get-together lil miss BR was the only child that was 'white English' , and the ladies running the games were by coincidence white too .
By the way .. Lil miss BR made loads of new friends that night , and so did Mrs BR . Mr BR is looking forwards to partaking in some of the invites to sample 'ethnic' cooking and fine ales at the invites we have accepted for more informal gatherings of the group . My new best mate Arkadiuz is going to show me how vodka should be treated with disrespect .
Wish me luck .
