I was taken on a London bus in the 1950's when the government was encouraging people from overseas to come to fill certain jobs. Seeing something I had never seen before - a lady with black skin on the bus - I screamed loudly and pointed to my mothers embarrasment (and the lady's probably) "Mummy Mummy that lady needs to go to hospital!!"
