That information about wrapping cabbage to reduce arthritic joint pain was interesting, will remember that when I get knee pain again.

Hi Turlough,
you bring the essence of wandering those old streets to life with your fine words and photos. Bulgaria must be blessed with its wonderful old buildings that have stood the test of time. Not like in England, where they seem to...

Hi Paul,
now that's what I call getting into character. You demonstrate how young minds use their imagination to create a scenario, so well.
