Ah, the old "have a cup of tea dear" in 1972's Derry (or Londonderry if Derry causes offence ). Old soldiers would tell you about the cups of tea with ground glass in them but it was a load of bollox, ground glass just sinks to the bottom. What else might have been in the tea though was anybody's guess.

Re: In todays news...
And you accepted him for the perverted cross-dressing make-up wearing ghoul that he is.
But if he said he wanted to be called Susan then that's stepping over the line and you'd label him a wrong 'un
It's all a bit tiresome now and I wouldn't care if all these minority groups disappeared overnight, but if Alice Cooper wants to strut about like a cross-dressing hobgoblin and expects me to treat him equally and extend him every courtesy, then he's going to have to do the same to me if one day I want to put a frock on and call myself Barbara.
Like I said, let's treat everyone equally or abandon it altogether and let nature do it's thing.

Alice Cooper is just a stage act. In real life he's Vince Furnier, plays a lot of golf and wears 'slacks'.
