They weren't meant to be ethnically anything, but we were forced to make one of them brown, at the cost of about 10k to the charity. This is how your donations are spent. Wisely as you can see."

Macdonalds - againA good friend of ours was "enjoying" the delights of a Mac something or other with her 4 year old son, when he saw a man of african descent sitting on a table near by with his friends. Rather too loudly, 4 year old blurted out "Look Mummy, that monkey is trying to talk". A hasty exit followed by all accounts.
