MY happy thought started as the opposite. On the way home yesterday I spotted that a ridge tile on a neighbour's roof had become dislodged by the storm and was left resting precariously above their side entrance.

One of the children answered as her parents were not in and as I was explaining what had happened I noticed 2 swastikas scratched quite faintly into the black paintwork of the front door threshold. I was utterly shocked but did my best not to draw the little girl's attention to them and walked home wondering who the hell would do such a thing (they are an Indian family) and how awful my neighbours would feel when they noticed them.

Quite by chance, however, I just discovered that Hindus use a swastika as a symbol for harmony so it appears my concerns about a racist motive were unjustified and I've learned something new.
