Subject: RE: BS: How to overcome *ism...
We both love our neighbours, Keith, and you have to make allowances for their lack of knowledge of the wider world. They don't mean any harm, and have helped us a great deal while I was ill, and the chap has done quite a few handyman jobs for us. I've looked after their little girl when she was poorly, while mum went to work. They once gave my husband a Birthday card with a picture of a gorilla on the front, as they said it looked like him! But he laughed and didn't mind. If they were really horrible I wouldn't tolerate it, but they're such a nice family.
