clapham_gull said:League1Champions, you reminded today of a night I had in Leeds (many years ago) in a pub called the "Fenton" - you probably know it well.
I was sitting at a table in the corner minding my own business, when a "couple" walked in.
The bloke was short but a hard as nails tatooed "townie".
I don't know if you use that expression in Leeds. I used to hear it in Manchester, and I guess the closest word now is "chav", but up North they used to be distinguished by their moustaches and possibly a shell suit in a "Kevin Webster off Corrie" type way.
Anyway, the locals called them "townies"
His girlfriend was tall and elegent, but in a Dana International type way. In fact it was quite obvious to me that she was a transsexual.
Far be it from me to stereotype your run of the mill Leeds working class male from fifteen years ago, but I found it strange for him to have chosen a transsexual as his partner.
Anyway - they sat down at my table and started to argue over some drugs deal. The "girl" slammed a bag of coke on the table and stormed out.
I was trying to keep myself to myself, but the bloke suddenly started up a conversation with "alright mate you from round here..".
Anyway the conversation went on and the question I was dreading came up.
"Eh, what do you think of my lady...?"
"um - okay" - I replied...
"Beautiful isn't she.." he said.
"Oh yeah, you've done well there..." I said.
Anyway - conversation drifts onto another subject, the evening wears on and he starts to get a bit pissed.
"Can I tell you something.." he said, "thing is, you'd never believe it but my girlfriend used to be bloke. I didn't know for ages, and none of my mates have found out yet.."
"Really" I said, acting surprised.
"And you know what", he said, "She's f*cking marvellous down there, you'd never know, the doctors did an amazing job. I didn't know for ages.."
"Great.." I replied...
"Only thing is, " he said.. "is she does like a drink"
"Is that a problem?" I asked...
"Too f***ing right..", he replied...
"She comes home pissed in the early hours of the morning and I spend half the night mopping it up.."
"Her sick?" I asked.
"No her piss.." he said,"Silly cow has forgotten her c*cks been taken off and she pisses all over the bathroom floor."
( I know that sounds like a bad joke, but it's 100% true and I remember that night everytime I meet someone from Leeds "
