I was working then but I would so much liked to have been there then.

I was working when I went to Romania on ceaucescu's plane at 3 hours notice flown by Romanian airforce to work with the children up in Siret. That was before the wall came tumbling down.

I was in Eastern Europe in 1967 and know a lot about "freedom" and oppression.

I was in Berlin some years ago and felt great energy there at The Brandenburg Gate.

I have watched lots of films. Did you see "the Promise?".

A complicated world we live in.

Be well and enjoy,

Val in England
