Evening Bus Journey

Somewhere between Highbury Boy's School and Highbury Barn a man got on the 19 bus and sat on one of the bench seats. Just outside the pub with that funny scicillian-looking wall thing he started singing somewhere over the rainbow in a quietish voice. He then launched into a monologue about where over the rainbow was - he lived in Finsbury Park but that certainly wasn't over the rainbow unless you lived above a certain ex-music venue (much pleased with his play on words/history he repeated it several times). Launched into more over the rainbow - this time loudly. School boys got on. Sat opposite him. Started taking the piss. He sang louder. They joined in. Then came a round of ARSENAL FOREVER. They shouted. He shouted arsenal forever, forever arsenal, arsenal forever forever arsenalarsenalforeverforeverarsenal. Until his face was puffed out red and tortured looking and he was jumping up and down in his seat leaning towards the boys. Then he had a question, "d'you know what BOY spells backwards? Do you do you?". One of the boys replies, "YOB". "Yeah, BOY spells YOB backwards, what future do we have?".
