I took ds2 to a play group this morning, this was a huge step for me as normally I only do things with the 2 of us...Afterwards I had to do some shopping so went to my local halal butchers to buy some lamb.
As I came out and was happily walking along with ds2 in his pushchair a black man (this is relevant) walked into the pram so I turned it to prevent him 1- falling onto ds2 2- stop him hurting himself. Cue him start shouting and swearing at me telling me I had deliberatly (sp) run into him...I apologised, as I knew as I turned the pushchair I had knocked his leg, asked if he was ok and he began screaming and shouting that "You people always do this" I started to walk and he followed me still shouting and then started threatening me and ds2, who thankfully was oblivious to what was going on. I walked into the local supermarket as by now I was getting upset and scared and he shouted "I am not just a black man I am not a Jamaican I am african and I will kill you and your ugly white son". The security guard came over to see what the problem was as by now I was in tears, I had said sorry but he would not leave me alone.
The security guard ushered me to the cafe where i sat still crying and went to find the man. he came back after 20 minutes and said he had a desription of him and when he came back to the store he would talk to him, and he would barr him if he was not satisfied with what he said. TBH I just wanted to get out and get home but had shopping to do I was so embarrassed that I sat there crying. I really don't want to go out again and I know I have not got all I needed in the shops because I just wanted to get me and ds2 home.
