Heshua? Bless You
Conversation in the pub last night
Girl walks into the bar while I am enjoying a cup of tea and watching the Manchester United game. She is about 16, has cigarette in one hand, pint in the other and speaks in high pitched chavvy way.
Girl (Walks into pub): Wassa score?
Me: 2-0 to United.
Girl: Who scored?
Me: O'Shea and Scholes.
Girl (leaning forwards with puzzled look): Who?
Me: O'Shea and Scholes.
Girl: Heshoo?
Me: O'Shea.
Girl (looking very puzzled now): Heshua?
Me (and several others): O'Shea!
Girl: I support Man U but I ain't heard of 'im.
Me: John O'Shea...
Girl: Who's the other one?
Me: Paul Scholes.
Girl: I know Wayne Rooney and David Beckham but he works for Real Madrid now.
(Girl pauses while looking proud of herself)
Girl: So who scored? Paul Heshua and John What?
Barman: Do you have ID for that pint?
(Escorts her out)
