    My school was mostly Asian. I was the only white one in my PE class. The rest was all Muslim. I did feel a bit awkward to start with ngl as was so obvious. But now still speak to two of them

    Muslim is not a race  its a religion lol. I think you might have been referring to the East Africans such as the Somalis and Ethiopians which are classified as black.

    I love a Barnsley accent, it lets you know everything is gonna be okay. Or it lets you know they've got a van and your valuables are going missing soon, it depends :joy:
    :joy::joy::joy: I love that!!! So true so true :joy:

    Ahaha I love that!! It’s like when people find out I was born in Scotland and then ask why I don’t have an accent then? I’m like I haven’t lived there in 12 years :joy: I was a very small child when I moved aha

    @Starlight on first meeting me a lot of people think I’ve just moved here from England. I even had a shop worker ask me once if I was on holiday in the place where I’ve lived almost my entire life aha when she first heard my accent she thought I must be on holiday here :joy:

    @Starlight yeah, her reaction when I explained I only lived down the road and had done for (however man years it was then) was even funnier. The utter shock was unreal

    Sometimes all you need is one person to believe in you , for you to begin to believe in yourself.
