[QUOTE="Estherfromjerusalem, post: 692768, member: 77"] I feel guilty -- I haven't updated my profile signature for five years, so 66 is now 71. Each time I try to edit it for some reason it doesn't work. As for the rest -- Copa, I'm pleased you enjoyed it. Now we have no choice but to sit back and wait and see what unfolds "over there." It will be interesting, that's certain. Britain was good to my parents, and my father never allowed us his daughters to say anything critical or negative about Britain, since it was the only country that allowed him to escape Germany and gave him a home (he had relatives, cousins, in England who guaranteed him that he wouldn't be a burden on the British economy (!), otherwise he wouldn't have been allowed entry). My mother was allowed to enter Britain because she came as a domestic servant. Well, they became British citizens, and actually my father was awarded the OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) by the Queen at Buckingham Palace when he retired, in recognition of his work for the blind, for over 40 years. So I certainly wish Britain the very best. Love, Esther [/QUOTE]
