    Having worked in Shepherd's Bush and lived on the edge of Bradford and lived in Coventry, I am very accustomed to seeing people wandering around in their pyjamas. They're called Asians.

    The only difference is they wear sandals instead of slippers, and they don't have kitties printed on their clothes.

    What's the difference? They're covered up.

    No - I was giving them a lift and driving straight back home to go out myself. Dressed, like.
