Half-Caste

'Excuse me standing on one leg I'm half-caste'
Came across an interesting feature in this week's Observer mag about mixed-race people. 
Got me thinking back to John Agard and his brilliant poem. It also got me thinking about young Oddie. 
Now then.. here we have a truly eclectic kid... a bit English, Cornish, Irish, French with a wee smattering of Vietnamese! Not that you'd notice the Vietnamese!
So, eat your heart out, John.., Oddie can stand on no legs! ;)

Ps..she can't stand on one leg for very long! :-D
