Adelaide 1965 - a friend of the wife and her husband were sailing to 
Europe on an Italian liner, and they got us passes to look over the 
ship. At the gangplank a guy in a brown dustcoat (remember them?) took 
our passes and said "Its bloody nice to see some white people".

memories from 3-4 yo - being snatched out of bed by my mother and 
carried to the air raid shelter coz a bunch of foreigners were 
approaching with the intention of killing us.
