My Hiroshima of an insult was from my ex-husband: "You have to understand that no man can ever love an ugly woman."

I delivered his belongings in bin liners to him and his latest fling at their office shortly after that.

I do to a Bajan black man!

Maybe my really curly hair in the pic made me look West Indian....who knows!

Edit: My ancestors going back 3 generations were from India. We are Indo Mauritians, the Chinese Chino Mauritians, the Africans are called Creoles and the French Franco Mauritians.

Actually, someone once told me I should have a sign up on my door saying 'beware of the dog' (I don't have a dog ) It was supposed to be a joke. At that time I laughed, then after doing my first half marathon the same guy said 'did you run all the way?' I said 'yes' and he said 'why could you not catch up with the pie van' again this was a joke. Funnily enough after a few years of his jokes I never speak to the sad fugger now.

Of the many, many, many varied insults slung at me by ex-husband during the soul-destroying years of the living hell that we laughingly called a marriage, there's one that always sticks in my mind.

We were having a massive argument in the kitchen - smashed crockery, screaming, swearing, dreadful insults - when in the midst of all the mayhem he called me a 'spineless frog'. It stopped me in my tracks.

I still, 30 years later, sometimes think 'spineless frog' ?????? why?? really annoying because I still don't know quite what he meant...............

I know ... it was all his stuff, including his motorcycle helmet which I perched on top of the pile. And I left my business card just in case they were in any doubt who I was.

As it happens he's still with her and they now have two toddlers and I hope he's happy and contented and stays that way.

I don't. I hope she leaves him for someone else.
