...we live in a rural area with virtually no ethnic minority population, except a few seasonal workers.
My DGD who has just started school has been regaling us with the delights of her new "best friend" - she has told us what they do together, how funny she is, what she wears etc. I met this little lass yesterday and she is a black girl. This was the one thing she had not mentioned. I know that when I was at school it is probably the first thing that would have been mentioned. I felt really heartened by this - and they are both so cute, my DGD being as fair as you can get with huge blue eyes - they made a lovely jolly pair running out of school hand in hand.
How times have changed - thank goodness!
