Can't remember where it was (somewhere on the south coast I guess)or anything about what happened when we got there, but I do remember that train!Linda Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06799429286538446158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1294026230680025155.post-65767444830746874562009-07-28T18:13:34.685+01:002009-07-28T18:13:34.685+01:00I love it - I feel like I know these people even t...I love it - I feel like I know these people even though the slang is different than ours.

Do you know if you try to write a play or a short story, writing the dialogue is always the killer because it's very hard to make it sound real. I wonder if the scraper knew it was St. Patrick's Day? And then the reality of death in an animal jawbone. It would set you thinking. Another wonderful epistle. LOVE Margaret Pangerthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09995968579194433270noreply@blogger.com
