Do I need counselling?
Was working in Warwick alll day yesterday and was the victim of some appalling racism.
The crane driver on site who was from Wolverhampton was continually making sheep sounds at us and saying that we are a nation of interbred sheep ********.
Should I report this chap to the Commision for Racial Equality
On the serious side though one of the boys got so fed up with this guy that he told him that he thought it was best if he buttoned it because if he did'nt he was going to drag him out of his cab and kick holy **** out of him. Seemed to quiten him down for some reason.
Just goes to show though how some people can be easily offended whilst others like myself can have a larf about it.

Chip, it seems racism/discrimination dosent apply to regional accents, The Welsh, The Scottish (though the Irish are a bit touchy), Scousers etc, also Gingers and fatties are still fair game apparently.
Dont know why this kind of discrimination is acceptable yet people are villified for anything against asians, blacks, gays or the disabled, dont know why its treated any differently, surely any kind of discrimination should be treated the same if the intention is to hurt somebody ?

The single most boring predictable thing that certain English people say to me (I'm Welsh) is some sheep joke. They always seem to think its completely hilarious and original and almost p**s themselves!
