Royston said "Beware the troll...Gedi I say that anyone claiming to have been called a racist for liking english music is in fact a liar. If I am wrong then the person accusing racism must be a lone idiot, so why would anyone bother to mention it..." Firstly I must thank Spleen Cringe for coming to my defence whilst I've been doing other things. Secondly, I can assure you Royston that I am neither Troll nor Liar. Nor do I appreciate being called such. The incident mentioned did happen and there were witnesses. I think your third sentence struck the nail on the head - the guy was a pratt of the first order. However I mentioned it just to show that such people do exist and that we should be aware of that fact. I was certainly taken by surprise that he could even think I was being racist, and he would not let me explain myself at all ( I think it was mostly the beer talking tbh). For your information, anyone who knows me will tell you that I am definately not a racist, living in a vibrant multicultural area of Manchester with friends from many different backgrounds. I don't intend to carry on with this but I felt I had to respond to your over-hasty character assasination. By the way, I personally would not wear black makeup. As Spleen says I prefer more the Smurf look, which is why I was 'Blued Up' on the night in question. Ged
