Years ago Mark played the diced banana trick on an apprentice. It's brilliant the way that you turned it into a meanful assembly.

I live in a very multi-cultural area - something I miss when I holiday in areas of the country that are predominantly white. I live next door to a British Muslim couple,who have been friendly and welcoming since we moved in and who arrived at our door on Christmas Eve bearing a card and chocolates for us despite the fact that they don't celebrate Christmas.How different they are to the supposed 'middle class white people' we spent the previous 15 months living next door to. My cardiac rehab trainer was a black man of Afro Caribbean descent- a former professional football player who has recently completed his PGCE.We got along really well as we discovered that we had quite a lot in common- I didn't see the colour of his skin but an intelligent, funny man who I could enjoy conversations with. There were others who didn't like him(or anyone else who wasn't white) purely because of his skin colour - I left the class because of them, while L just laughed it off. When I asked him about it he said it was nothing compared to the abuse he'd taken whilst playing football for a living- I found that incredibly sad. I know who I'd rather live nextdoor to or be in the company of.Scarlethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01729719876504930455noreply@blogger.com
