Still the stoicism, spirit and eccentricity of us Brits is most definitely on a par. But that's enough about Chris Eubank for today! Edited by BlueJay (06 Jun 2020 11.33pm)

I always found people from Ghana to be lovely, so much so that in a supermarket when helped find something by a friendly worker i have asked, "are you from Ghana?", only for them to say yes, how did you guess? Thats happened a couple of times over the years, on the other hand iv"e had the opposite effect with some Nigerians, no idea why! White South African blokes can be difficult/chip on shoulder types, as are Russian ladys, Aussie blokes can be a bit tiresome and people from New Zealand i have met are either very strange or the loveliest people you could wish to meet!

I have been away for a week or so as I am busy with other things. Having read a few of the comments I have missed in that period I am pretty glad to have done so and won't be in any rush to come back. If anyone doesn't understand what lies behind this resurgence of the "Black Lives Matter" movement then reading some of those comments is the only instruction needed. Not that those writing them will have the slightest understanding of why that is. Which is probably the biggest barrier to solving the problem. Ignorance and denial are an epidemic in this place every bit as virulent as C19 is in the community as a whole. Here we go, you are all thick racists and I am far intellectually superior to you lot. If this is the only sort of tripe you can bother typing, I am sure I am not alone in saying you won’t be missed on here. Unbelievable
