I used to "holiday" at my grandma's house in Kerry when I was a child, iirc there was something like 2 Asian families in Tralee at the time and there was generally a benign curiosity towards them from my relations and then my arsehole of a dad would always make shitty "wait until you have a million of these fuckers" type comments, he probably suffered prejudice himself in 60's England (dropped the O' from his name) but what a complete fucking arsehole.
