The tulips begin to bloom, but it is wood anemones at the moment and there are new green leaves on the common hollyhocks, one of my favourite plants.<br /><br />In honour of spring and the botanical integration I bought sea thrift today. We call it English grass because of the design of thrift on the reverse of the British three pence coin issued between 1937 and 1952, I just learned. Not how we call it of course, but the reason why. <br /><br />I cannot send you tulips from Turkey so I hope you’ll be satisfied with warm greetings from your little tulip.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8393578624305189946.post-73011420463049196332012-03-31T11:57:49.068+01:002012-03-31T11:57:49.068+01:00Good morning my lovely, I trust you, like the tuli...Good morning my lovely, I trust you, like the tulips, are blooming?<br /><br />That's a long one, I shall save it for a quiet moment, thank you.Himselfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11666097098083216833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8393578624305189946.post-47092773259210992832012-03-31T08:11:18.199+01:002012-03-31T08:11:18.199+01:00Afghanistan: Women under imperialist occupation

He came to me and he said, "I never want to divorce you, but I want to marry another girl."<br /><br />Shayla said she refused, telling him: "No, I don’t agree with your decision, because what will be the situation of my children if you marry with another woman?"<br />-----------------------------------<br /><br />Historically, some communities have sanctioned "honor" killings in which a woman could be killed by her own relatives for bringing "dishonor" upon the family by conduct perceived as breaching community norms of sexual behavior—including being a victim of sexual violence.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
