What has Mark, Little Chris and especially Winston done for being cheered?
In order for someone to be comfortable, the surroundings need to be comfortable. Which implies that the people in those surroundings need to be open-minded and offer a warm welcoming hand. Not throw a new fellow HM to the sharks based on a hyped up VT. Which most of them have already done, yet they all had a giggle about and dismissed it. Whereas, as soon as Pav does it, they all gang up and pick on him.
Such hypocrites!
