Well as a start stop using the terms 'half-caste' and 'coloured'! Even when some one pointed out the offence this might cause, you still used the terms again in your next post.

The world has gone mad.

These days if you say you’re English you’ll be arrested and thrown in jail, these days.

If you feel you need to start a post with 'I genuinely don't want this to sound how it may sound to some' doesn't that tell you that you know it needs more consideration? I'm all for people being frank and honest, and have little time for people who look for offence in posts or comments when it isn't there, but you don't need to be a snowflake to feel that some of the language floating about on this thread should be left in the 1950's. I know we're all children of our time, but there are some areas where we need to make sure we change our language and the way we use it - I don't believe Marty's sentiment in the first post was racist, but the pervading use of words which are casually racist is one reason why racism remains an issue in society.

I wonder what Major Ballard Berkeley with think of this thread?

The world has gone mad for many reasons, trying to rid it of casual racism isn’t one of those reasons.
