Yeah I am, just joined up with an modelling agency recently actually.

But again, that's just what I thought and I see that wasn't exactly the point you were making in your post, I just felt like going on a mini-rant of my own.  |
Thank you darling, and yes I'm absolutely sure you're right, I don't actually think now that I was trying to say racism, there's just a huge variety of multicultural people in your country.

I love British humour, I can relate to the cynical and sarcastic humour far better.
