I think it was Oxfam the Christmas before last.

Then there was that daft council and its "Winterfest" idea.

Recently there's been a news item about making sure 3 year olds in nursery integrate properly with all races. When my kids were 3 I don't think it dawned on them that there were different races. They saw skin colours the same way they saw eye and hair colours, just as variety but not worth bothering about.

I will still call a blackboard a blackboard and I will still sing baabaa black sheep. Sheep are neither black nor white really but then again neither are people.
