Golly Rights!

When I was little there was a well known character called Golly, that wasn't his full name, because his full name included a racial slur. Golly was a friendly chap, forever smiling and for some reason associated with jam. Pretty much every child had a Golly doll, it was normal, who wouldn't want a novelty soft toy version of a happy black man with an afro? Its better than a soft toy version of a pasty faced ginger man, thats just scary!

Anyway, imagine my surprise when browsing the wares in the local 'Might-as-well-be-a-pound-shop' to find my old friend Golly chilling out on a mini PVC sofa. He has found a safe place to hide, hardly anyone actually makes it to the back of this shop. So, there's little chance of him being spotted by the PC brigade and removed from society in an act of cuddly toy ethnic cleansing. His character has almost totally been assasinated, but I'm glad to see he lives on. Hopefully one day soon he won't have to hide like this, one day he will be considered equal to all the other soft toys. Poor Golly.
