My sister used to work as a nurse. She saw a Birth Certificate once application with "Richard Cranium" on itdunno



I know I should not include this information but ......



Part of the tale goes that my brother is married to an Asian. When their first son was born, he wanted to name him "Richard." His wife did not like that choice of name so he did end up with something different. He did think that shortening "Richard" to "Rick" would go well with the surname "Shaw."

serene56: Yeah, so I've been immersing myself in Moroccan culture and history of late, sooo interesting

Not sure how I'm gonna approach the trip when the time comes, whether to head north then travel through Asia and parts of Europe, skip over there from Spain, or ..

Most likely fly straight to East Africa, stop a while in Zanzibar, maybe Dar es Salaam, do a couple safaris then charter flights up to the north-west..

Soooo, in the meantime, I've been armchair travelling through Northern India, Kashmir, Nepal, Pakistan and Afghanistan Phew, that was tiring lol, but incredibly fascinating and have only just dipped my toes in

So at present, I'm in Tibet, gonna be here a while, sooo much to learn and get my head around ...



Taking a break from Tibet lol at present, having a peek at Indonesian history and the incredibly interesting diversity of the various faiths followed by Indonesian people .. Islam, Christianity, Hindu, Buddhism ..

writing typing wow confused typing conversing
