If you have a mo, nip over to "Joey's Mum" and read "her" words before you watch it. Do not be alarmed that your computer has broken, the sound track has been disabled which I might just have noticed if I'd cleaned my bifocals first.Don't forget to add your name to the "list" and help spread the word. I have a terrible feeling that I'll miss the opportunity to test USPS by sending it abroad. I need more foreigners. Know any foreigners? I wonder if it's because I'm using the wrong word? Do foreigners know what a giveaway is? Foreigners! Foreigners! Calling all foreigners! It's a freebie!Cheers dearsIf you like what you read, send it to someone in 'need.'

They contributed not only in the our prosperity but have also created a culture of their own. Many people from Turkey and Maroc, especially elder man and imported brides- do only speak their own language. For years the foreigners could, due to our policy, just live their own life in our cou...
