Hi, I was wondering if you was the African priest that my class-mates and I threw clementines on, in the mid eighties, in a church in Svelvik, in Norway? We went there as part of our confirmation-‘education’, and the local supermarket Prima, had clementines on sale. And I went with Rune Bingen etc., and bought a bag of them, (since they were very inexpensive, as I remember it, that week). (So this was not long before Christmas, in 1985, if I should guess). Some other guys in my class stared throwing clementies on you, in the church, while you spoke. And I mostly ate the ones I bought, but I also threw some, since I tried to act like my class-mates there. (I grew up with my mother in Larvik, so I tried to adapt. And my father let me live alone, so I tried to fit in, to not be bully-ed a lot). Sorry about this. We had no Africans in Berger/Svelvik, (and no homo-sexuals etc.), so we weren’t used with black people, etc. Sorry again! Best regards, Erik Ribsskog
