Thank you for the sense of humour when reading. I was afraid I would get angry responses from short-sighted people. Again.
On a remotely related note, I believe that the English word acquaintances should be popularized. I don't want to call them friends but it feels strange to call them acquaintances because it's one of those words you don't use.
Thank you for the nice words about Ruse. However, I'd say that we do not deserve the title because we are not making any effort. It's a city with golden potential and it's doing nothing (or too little, nothing it too strictly defined ;)) to make something out of it. It's a shame that I would not know where to take you if you came to visit me in Ruse. :)
@Garth - Why do you have to stay at work during the грипна? This is... sad. :) But I've also always been amazed how Carolyn does not seem to be willing to choke some of the above-mentioned "short-sighted people".
