Imo people like you are the very image of what i want from my multicultural country . Please, please report this in all ways you can.
It might be nothing to do with rascism of course, it might be because you were a woman, or just because of who they are not who you are. But we, the nice peoe of this corner of uk unite in saying we back you.
I suspect the purpetrators were culturally deficient.
On the subject of which, I went to a charity bingo evening last night (don't - far better to have bought the ticket but not gone!). DS comment was "Have you no cultural capital?"; first thing he did on arriving home was flop in front of the plasma TV, flip the playstation on and order a takeaway pizza!

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.0 -
I'm so sorry to hear what happened to you, misskool. Shocked and angry :mad: Little !!!!!! need a good spanking and their parents also.As most of us know first hand from having been there and done that, there is something about being a teenager in a group of your peers that makes you behave like a scroat even if actually almost all the those in the group wold behave very nicely when on their own. I guess luckily the majority also grow out of it. I'm not sure if you grew up in this country so you may not come from a culture where teenagers almost all rebel to some extent?
I don't know michaels...I know I've done my bit of scroat-ish (?) and rebellious behavior when I was a teenager, but throwing rocks at people was never part of that.0 -
If there is any chance that they were school kids, I would complain to the headmaster. Even without knowing the culprits the head should be sending out the message that this behaviour is unacceptable.There is no honour to be had in not knowing a thing that can be known - Danny Baker0

Quite right. It would be good if this were raised with the headmaster (or even mentioned to a teacher)
I'm hoping to be contacted by the community support officer so there is a buffer between me and the headmaster so I won't get pointed out. Sorry, the culture of fear nowadays is v pervasive0 -
If the head master pointed you out then we really have no hope.0
