I hate that my boss has moved me to a larger more busy building.
More dossy clients who don't know what they want.
More stressy producers who make me do double the work I actually need to do.
Farless time on the forum.
And to top it all off i'm on lates so no drinks this week for me, missed rollers yesterday.
Oh and my colleague called in sick today so I have to cover all their jobs too. -

If you want to take the frame legitimately, I believe you need to contact the council about its presence. And they will notify you when they remove it and you can claim your free bike.
I think they leave one of their laminated notes on it for a while and if the owner does not come forward, you can have it.

A mixed-race child (previously) made a decision which group to choose to fit into.
A mixed race child HAS to pick which group they identify with.
As child I was very fortunate to go to an international school with lots of mixed race kids and kids from all over the world. And at my school all the mixed race children banded together. That is where we coined the phrase Ghanglish because all my closest friends where Ghana / English.
But when moved back to England, I found out of no conscious choice of my own I made a lot more white friends listened to more white music dressed more white. Where as my brother is notably more black into black music dresses more black and has more black friends. My sister is different again dresses like a sloane girl and listen to black music, keeps company with mainly mixed race people. How do you like them apples?

Care to explain? why do you think growing up in this country, in particular, is a challenge for mixed race people? in particular.
Genuine question.
I think being mixed race is difficult anyway.
I grew up in Ghana and I was constantly looked at as the light girl and I was generally considered to be white.
And now I'm living England I'm considered to be black.
You can't win being mixed race, you always have the feeling that your an outsider.
Funny thing is when I went to India every one thought I was Indian, although I didn't like this because I'm not Indian and I had a horrible nick name at school that rhymed with my name which is Sakky (I'm sure you can figure that one out).
But I did find being called Indian very endearing coming from an Indian person. -

Save up for things first, and then buy the very best you can afford. buy quality and longevity, and buy style over fashion.
Don't buy the one that is almost as good as the one you really want, because you'll know it isn't the one you really want, and you'll either be dissatisfied, or end up buying the one you really wanted anyway, and spending twice as much. If you can afford it buy the one you really want.
That sounds like some sort of ad campaign

Can I just say it really suck that this thread was derailed. It would have been really great if the forum could have clubbed together and given Cat all the info she needs to get her programme of the ground.
I hope she dosn't look back at this thread and think we are bunch of twats. It would be a shame if this documentry doesn't use the resources this forum has to offer.
She hasn't posted since she started the thread, lets hope she comes back. -
