[kj] Sex Pistols singer faces race attack claims

[Brendan]

When I start work in a couple weeks here in Sydney, I'll be one in 20 that
walks to work. And I have dodgy knees & hip.

I turfed my telly 6 months or so ago. I have now turfed my car, for the
time being, and I don't intend on getting one for sime time, as long as I
can go without it.

Suppose I'm fucking it all up by working for an international investment
bank though innit. But at least I'm gonna use the money for a good cause,
it won't be wasted on luxuries :/
