Wa aleykum salaam dear sister

I feel it is going to be great fun having you around CR, you have a great sense of humour.

If you need more dog hair for your spinning just shout, I have a house full of the stuff!!!!

The bats live out in the barns but every now and again one flies into the house. I am not scared of them at all but I do worry they will hurt themselves, they get in such a panic.

My father and I used to keep race pigeons and tumblers, wow over 30 years ago now but these ones just happened along.

They are so beautiful to watch, particularly when it is raining and they all have a shower. I always want to nip out with some shower gel, they look like they enjoy it so much.

WOW, I say again wow. You must have a real gift for languages as you have chosen very difficult languages to learn. Maybe you can give me some tips on learning a language? I would love to speak Arabic fluently but have such a bad memory, I learn a new word today and by tomorrow have forgotten it.

Oh you are like me, a bit of a Hienz 57 Have you ever been to Pakistan? I haven't been but would love to go and see the country.

Don't marry anyone for money, marriage is a long life so we should be with someone we are good friends with and can learn to really love over time. No amount of money makes a person nicer.

I agree completely.
