I remember after I first joined, everyone was like: &#8216;Kammy is like a classic Dingle&#8217;. I didn&#8217;t even know what that meant but now I see it! He&#8217;s someone who does mean well, but he&#8217;s getting up to mischief.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"39\" class=\"css-18ljdn6 emevuu60\">&#8220;The beauty is that, for myself growing up, I never, ever imagined a brown kid like me would be part of the Dingles, you know?
