Hi Hairy,
Sorry to hear that but we understand. You won't get called racist by us.
We believe that there are the good & the bad in all walks of life. The colour of the skin is not the issue. It is the behaviour and ability to live with all who share the land we live in. In any country.
Our ancestors were treated very badly too but I've only seen reference made to this once.
A lot of them sent out here against their will.
Young children included. Sent out here in squalid conditions in the same boats as hardened crims. Some of the children were only from orphanages.
Young girls were raped. We, too, have our story. Nothing will ever change the suffering these kids endured. They are dead and gone. We've moved on.
However it's a free country and we all have different opinions. I don't want any arguements. It's a tedious issue, I don't think anyone can ever agree on.
We hope things work out for you. We've been told that
Katherine is not a good choice now either, especially in the wet. It was our second choice at one stage.
Take care.
With best wishes. Neville & Sally.
