Hi Beth,
I hear you - every country on Earth that we are on speaking terms
with - has an embassy here and has imported a large number of their country
men - driving here is a kin to being in a demolition derby. Saturday night
we had fancy dress dinner for Amber GodMother's 50th birthday - the drivers
where so bad - even Amber had to comment on it. We both where very calm in
our panic when when an 18 wheeler in the right lane and a van in the left
lane both decided they wanted part the middle lane where we were
similanteously - I suddenly felt very much like the filling in an Oreo. I
think all I got out was SH*T in a quiet conversational tone. I am so glad
Escorts are little - if I had been driving the Caddy -I would have huge
scrapes down both side to enhance the red pinstripes already there. LOL
Brightest Blessings
