  What a complete scumbag – 2 year sentance out after 1 year, does’nt bother turning up at his first sentancing hearing but thats all right he paid €8,000 compensation so that means he’s racked with remorse, right.

  “He said his wife and child had returned to Mongolia to seek medical treatment for the child.”

  Blimey! Mary Harney’s doing a worse job than I’d realised.

  Anyone remember when people with Downs Syndrome used to be referred to as being Mongolised?
• Holemaster Says:
  July 3rd, 2008 at 7:36 pm

  Or maybe it was Mongoloid

  Excellent interview with Alan Moore on Radio 1 just finished, probably on pod cast soon.

  Do you think we’d have still called them that if we had computers?
• Holemaster Says:

  Probably!

  My friend’s brother is Mongoloid and even he used the term.

  I don’t know, I think it’s a jingoistic – no, maybe xenophobic sort of response to otherness.

  Like my mother in law making comments about some black actor’s horrible thick lips. And not understanding the inherent racism in the comment.

  The term is offensive to Mongolians, not people with Down’s Syndrome!

  I heard a woman talking about shopping with her little Down’s daughter. And some woman saw her looking at pretty dresses, and came over and said something like ‘ah I wouldn’t bother, it’d only be a waste’.

  Can’t be doing with much of the pc stuff. If you’re not being evil then don’t worry about it. Even among the more uptight of the Downs crowd you can’t say you’ve got a Downs kid. That defines them as being only Downs, see? You have a kid with Downs. Big difference, I’m sure you can see. Right? Right?
• Holemaster Says:

  Yeah well whatever the fuck and a bottle of bovril, they’re nice kids usually, very loving and generally happy. Do you ever hear them getting pissed about being called Downs?

  Suppose you’ve heard the joke about the dog called Syndrome.

  What if you have a black child? Is that then a child with black?

  Don’t quite know how but I came across your blog in midweek. Glad your little fella’s back home but more importantly you managed that 12k.

  Nah Twenty, the black kids got it all over you see, the Down’s kids only got it in the face.

  Cheers Twenty

  I didn’t know anything about DS myself eight months ago. Now I know that I’ve got 46 chromosomes in every cell of my body, but my little fella has 47. That’s all Down Syndrome is. Every single cell gets an extra chromosome. Bit of a spanner in the works sometimes, but he’s got a smile can burn the clouds off even a day like today. Oops, getting sappy. I’ll get me coat…
• Twenty Major Says:
  July 3rd, 2008 at 10:07 pm

  It’s mad that it’s an extra one. You’d think it’d be one less.

  Maybe he’s just much better than us but we don’t know it and he’s thinking ‘Look at all these fucking weirdos’ I’m surrounded by.

  I’m relying on the little fucker whipping out the keys to the spaceship when this whole carbon fuel-based shitball goes down the eco-tubes, a sheepish look on his face as he tells us ‘Er, there’s something I never told you guys…’

  talk among yourselves while I try to work out why people in Mongolia have a desire to go to Ireland ! is there some kind of link up… are you twinned with the country ? are they lost, and if they are how the fuck do you end up just about to fall off europe and into the ocean…. from Mongolia ?
  C’mon Twenty, you must know, you’re a well travelled sort of chap.

  You can’t say “child with black”, it’s “child with African-American.”
