The only two mexicans in the village


Have you ever been the "only one" Mexican in the town?* that is the way I felt on Saturday evening in Bishop’s Stortford. Jorge and I decided to watch the football-match between Mexico-Argentina in one of the must "in" bars in the town. Dressed with our Mexican tricots of course we cruse into the bar and take a sit in front of the mega-screen-wall.

First reactions: "Mexico, Mexico" shouted a few guys and the manager of the pub came closer with his digital camera: "may I please take a picture of you two? You are the first Mexicans in the town"!
After the 1st half we were allowed to go upstairs, on the 1st floor of the bar and watch the game feeling like VIPs; large sofa, perfect sound and less people than downstairs. We defenately enjoyed the match! Mexico
didn’t manage to score a second time, but they certainly played a fabulous football! Mexico! Mexico! Mexico!

*to a few British or the ones of you that have spent time in the UK, this phrase might remind you "the only gay in the village", from Daffyd in the most famous english comedy show "Little Britain".
