Norman seems level, sensible and reasoned, unlike David James Smith... who comes across as a bit unhinged and rather scary.

It looks like this bloke is just sparing for a fight with anyone who rises to his bait, same old story so maybe it's time to simply ignor him and get on with our lives?...he's just another nutter at the bus-stop as far as I'm concerned.

With the perspective of a few weeks distance from the original outcry I have to say there was an element of narcisisim in the response. People being outraged on behalf of their town, assuming they know all about it without thinking of anothers experience. For myself I know I am prone to make unwitting racist assumptions and imagine others are as well. Trying to be objective is amazingly hard. The idea that people report abuse to the Police is laughable as well. The best that can be said of N.Bakers' response is that it was probably written on the train on the way home. Complacent.

Yes well Norman does have a little matter of the Nation`s transport to worry about perhaps placating a egomaniacal loon is not number one on his to-do list.
We are a mixed race family and we do not recognise one syllable of truth in his silly article. He has a book to sell , end of story.

Either way, Baker is finished and might as well enjoy his moment in the limelight while he can.

Mrs Twine, I think your cream would work better with some of your knitted yoghurt added.

Discussing food/recipes is far more useful and interesting than poor bitter Smithy. Hurrah for Lews folk I say. Cheers, Peter
