I regarded it as a reward for years of hard work in my business and even in the worst times of the anti fur criminal activity I refused to destroy it. Now in more straitened circumstances I'm glad I kept it and can still use it.Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01529798893653033970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20735769.post-32099592754958479432011-01-30T23:49:30.255+00:002011-01-30T23:49:30.255+00:00So glad you made the effort.
