Off topic, sorry. I was following your blog and now I’m not… I don’t know why 🙁 And for some reason I can’t see the “follow” button anymore. Help!
I think I’ve fixed the problem. 🙂
Glad it worked, Jo.
It happens to me too, every now and again I revisit a blog and it looks as if I am not following it anymore.
Un weekend frumos!
Foarte neplăcut. Aș regreta să pierdem legătura. Imi place blogul tău. Mai învăț una-alta chiar și despre Romania. Keep up the good work.
Esti grozava, Jo. 🙂
Si eu ma bucur ca te-am cunoscut.
Fun but I couldn’t get it to work. I probably would have flunk anyway.
Ah, no, Martie. Sorry about that.
And, please, don’t be so tough on yourself. xx
Well, this is fun, Pat. New to me: #1, #7, #10. Number 9 has recently come up in conversation with a friend. Now, I will try to nonchalantly put Samhainophobia in a sentence and impress my husband. A very fun post. The questions found in the local media today is favourite Halloween candy. Difficult to measure the accuracy of the responses.(Also no issue with your post and I have more luck using Google Chrome with many blogs)
So glad to hear you had fun, Erica 🙂
Ha ha, I love your linguistic fishing plan 🙂
Have a lovely weekend.
