Some of you are so impatient, why don't you give me time to explain? I have other posts to read and other posts to answer, I just can't be at everyone beck and call at the same time.
/// I think some of us need to know the circumstances where your race presented you with difficulty in drinking from a water fountain - because as far as I can recall, we've never had that level of segregation in the UK. ///
For starters, my race was never in question, or the fact that I had difficulty in drinking in a water fountain or anything about a certain level of segregation in the UK, all this is just twisting my words, and neither was it was not all an off the cuff remark.
Initially I was asked if I had to fight for a special seat on a bus.
Not actually 'fight' in the true sense of the word but 'argue' as one who is disabled and needs a specific disabled seat, in which a none disabled person is seated.
Then I was asked did I ever drink from a water fountain, the plain answer was yes in my childhood days when they were a feature in most parks and also in spa towns.
Finally I was asked have I ever rented a house, the answer was yes, before I finely bought my own.
There not too difficult is it, unless you belong to the type as one who gets a perverted delight in twisting one's words out of all proportion.
