I like this, the guy is being included in the banter, I bet they call Harry Ginger and a Fat bloke at the club something hilariously related to his weight, Mr Singh has dark skin so why is that so sensitive an issue, compared to us more pasty folk he may indeed look like he is a little "Sooty", hilarious, it isn't actual Soot, its his skin colour, it isn't a racial slur its doing what all close groups of people do, make nicknames and pull each others legs.

It must be a slow news week, even by Daily Mail standards their Monday Headline was along the lines of "Diet and exercise key to long healthy life", so this must have been gold dust, Prince Charles refers to skin colour shock horror.

I used to know a guy called Sooty - well, Mr Sooty was his real nick...


But he was a white person. Does that make me racist too?
