No he has not! Where did that one come from?
-
anyone else of different race
There is only one race, the human race. They've cracked the human genome and it's known that the genetic variation is 0.01% between any two individuals on Earth, no matter where they come from.
Compare that with chimps, who even in different groups in the same jungle have a genetic variation of around 2%.

On the Dulux colour chart im a mixture of subtle ivory 4 with a hint of pink nevada 4.
I presume that means im some form of white anglo saxon heritage, although could be a bit of viking or roman mixed in there somewhere aswell?
Hope that helps.........

Now you know I love you Richy, right, but my lady's Jamaican and if you called her coloured she would take a knife to you. Silly I know. I wish I had a little coloured uv protection.
I think the term black would prove less pernicious.

Well, those clever scientists think at one stage in our history, the whole population of the human race was reduced down to about 2000 people; something to do with climate change on the Savannah(?).
Because the numbers were so low, we're effectively all pretty much related to each other; hence chimps have a bigger genetic diversity than humans.

Is it just my computer, or is Blastaways sig block naffing up the screen?
-
Sorry, Blastaway, I deleted your post so I could check it was the one in question. Can you reduce the size of your sig block, it naffs up the screen.
Cheers.

I'm half Jock and half Sweedish - born in the Western Isles and bought up in London.
No wonder I'm always confused. Everytime I hear Abba or bagpipes, I get all emotional.

i thought coloured was now the preferred term to use politically speaking maybe im wrong i didnt want to ask how black cleaners are there
its jut where im from there is a very small minority of people from other ethnic origins

And being half Jock really means you're quarter Geordie and quarter pig. You've got to remember that Jocks came from a 1473 union when a drunken Geordie went over the border and mated with a pig. That's a historical fact that is.
You're almost my brother.

Ah, yeah, the genetic bottleneck, I remember now. Thanks bro!

That's very considerate of you Richy but the term is black, honestly.
Now you know I love you Richy, right, but my lady's Jamaican and if you called her coloured she would take a knife to you. Silly I know. I wish I had a little coloured uv protection.

Don't know what happened there!
-
Let's use words like "ethnic minority" and keep everything politically correct and tiptoe around asking how many black or Asian or "Non white British" window cleaners there are!! ;D ;D ;D
I love to see people struggle asking questions and trying not to upset someone who's a Citroen driving left footed green party voting Lesbian (in the Women's rights Group at their daughters primary school) sort of posts on here.
-
Me? Human race. (Maybe a bit of Martian?)
Of a dozen JW window cleaners I know locally.
Mostly white British.
One black British. (Real character, late 50's, I asked him whether he preferred "black" or "coloured" and he said he couldn't care less - married to a white woman; he has a collection of Robertson's Gollywog figures on his fireplace!)
One white half American-half Norwegian by descent but British by birth - unusual accent.
One white South African

wouldn't worry about it, I thought the same until it was pointed out to me(turns out I was 20 years out of date apparently), if no harm is intended it can't be offensive, well it can but that is another discussion

We don`t have windows in Africa only newspapers.
-
I've a friend in SA who doesn't clean windows - does that count?
