In terms of incorporating the best things of the old culture - I saw the pics of the box of tea bags! Nice work.

This works for me. Take what's good about Gambian culture...and what's good about being a British woman and put the two together...if people don't like it...their problem. You have a right to an identity too. And people are happier when they feel like they have one and 'belong' ..even if it's only in the 'United Kingdom of Kate'. Not that this is easy, mind, lovey! Just remember we call a man of lesser status a 'W****r!' 'Boy' doesn't seem too bad, now. (I still prefer W****r though, especially if they support United!!!). As for the woman thing.... it's just men trying to feel important because they can't grow babies. Bless 'em. xxBrit Girl in Prince Ruperthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358311417537752475noreply@blogger.com
