A private word, if I may, Gavin old boy:
We unwashed colonists, regardless of what we may privately think or say about
our darker bretheren, do not publicly refer to them as "ragheads" "wogs"
"nips" "chinks" etc. Perhaps you chaps in the old country haven't heard of
political correctness, yet, but references such as those are definitely not
cricket.
I would imagine that some of the same persons with whom you gladly converse
on this and other media might actually BE some of those "ragheads" to whom
you refer.
Pip pip and Cheerio, old sod.
