I went into St. Albans town
earlier to buy tickets to see Suggs and have some lunch. Not that exciting
apart from the awkward moment when I dropped my milkshake all over the floor,
The Café owner, a fellow gooner, said I had a touch of the Szczesny’s which
shows the state of our club has sort of become an in-joke amongst us fans. But
enough of the football talk. I wouldn’t say that a trip to town is normally
blog worthy but you might not believe what happened in the bank today.
I just popped in to check
something and I came out feeling rather patronised. While I was a tad annoyed,
I did find the whole thing hilarious. I mean, a wheelchair must mean clinical
moron. The woman went out of her way to show me how to use an ATM machine.
Thanks, being a ‘Wheelchair Boy’, I’ve obviously never used one. Then she told
me I need to get side-on to enter my pin, which she did turn around to give me
privacy (unlike some people). However, she then asked if I’d like a printout of
my statement, which turned out to be an A4 (not discrete) with the balance in
full view. My mate had to turn around and laugh because he could see how much I
love being spoken to like a muppet.
You might think this is
pretty funny and unbelievable but I’m used to it. I just laugh at people’s
ignorance because if you don’t know me, that is the standard response. It’s
like people have a code in their head. Wheelchair=Special (thumbs up).
So, I didn’t quite manage
100 votes by noon but I’ve literally just hit the 100 mark, which I’m over the
moon with. Thank you for all the support but this needs to continue. I realise
I’m a bit annoying but I’m afraid I won’t stop until April. Do what I do and
tell everyone you lay eyes on to vote. Here's the link http://www.bigblogexchange.org/blog/72005
Bye for now!
