That must be it, Alan. Either that or they have different interests -- after all, there are not only students of English here.
As it is, though, we are quite a mixed and colourful bunch, aren't we? |

| By the time they're 12, most people from Scandinavia I've met are almost like native speakers of English. I doubt that that many need our help. |

In Eastern Europe I sat at a table where some middle-aged teaching colleagues were having a conversation about countries where the women are either extremely beautiful or extremely ugly, with no one between those extremes. The countries they discussed most in that regard were Sweden and England. |

I don't think ugly is the right word, when talking about women... We have a saying in Georgia "Every woman is wonderful in her own way " ;) _________________ Bombing for peace is like f.. for virginity |

You may be interested to know that in Poland we add to this sentence a small correction - every women is wonderful in her own way but sometimes it is just not enough wine to drink to see her beauty :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hi,
We never seem to get any postings from Finland, Sweden, Denmark. I wonder why - maybe their English is too good.
