scousedon: I am alright on that score, I know the alphabet. I was married to a Russian and lived in Russia for a while. Try and get down to Yalta when in the Ukraine.

OK - thanks i will do my best. Have already organised a guide. Strange thing is she wants paying in American dollars. I would have thought Euro's or there own money would have been more suitable

trish123: I may be on my way to Edinburgh before too long, I might trouble you for a cuppa on the way if thats not too cheeky - itll be after crimbo now
Juneau: I've only been on here about 2.5 months, but am steadily making some good 'internet' friends.
I just wondered how long you've all been on here for and what experiences you have gained from joining?
Keep it clean people!!!!!!!
I've been here just under 4 months... i think Most the regulars know me (hi lovies! ) even though i never formally intro'd myself... kinda sad i never did that, i still might one day, lol. THREAD: HI, I'M NEW, but not really. Just to feel the love.
Anywho, i met someone, was smitten very shortly after... then we argued and fought and i didn't like who i was when we did, so we aren't together anymore and i'm trying not to think about him anymore.
on a side note, i'm very open to distractions, lol.
scousedon: I liked it very much, mainly in Crimea but it was about ten years ago. Was in Kiev, Cherkassy, Yalta and simferopol.
Id love to visit those areas - all of Russia, the trans-siberian railroad must be a great journey
What was that woman called who got off the train there and walked to China?......... Gladys Aylyard I think - the film 'the inn of the sixth happiness (7 happinesses in chinese) is about her life..........

trish123: There are some amazing people on this site but you do have to watch out for the charlatans - there are people everywhere who will take you for a ride if you arent cautious - keep your wits about you and dont ignore red flags and things should work out just fine - good luck to you all

odessaukraine48: glad you enjoyed Ukraine. i take it you can speak Russian. i can a little.
Oh, Only a little Gary also. I learnt the alphabet which helps because many words can be understood just knowing the alphabet and helps when travelling to know destinations and read menus.
