    I loved it! -35c in Urals felt warmer than 0c at Heathrow when I got back, damp cold, miserable....
    Does she ever take her clothes off? Or, as AtW says, do you spend most of the time on your sofa?

    I am, born in Bolton where Suity is working.

    I was a bit of a Commie in the late seventies, (CPGB!!) and visited Russia Soviet and post Soviet times, studied the language, forgot a lot of it over time, went back for a trip on the Transsiberian, met a girl on it, and here we both are, not married so she's not a Mail Order Bride lol!

    Udachi nam!
