Well hey :)
I've been reading the forum for the last couple of days, doing research on pretty little gadgets that I can't afford.
What should I say about me? Hard to tell. I'm a very poor English teacher in the Czech Republic, originally from Australia. I used to hold an editorial position, and before that was a graphic designer. Plus, I've been feeding a reading addiction since a very young age, at a rate that flummoxes non-readers ;-) I love reading, I love technology, so... I figure I should fit right in here So hi ;-) |

But, I meant poor financially... oh... unless you were making a joke, and now I'm over-explaining. Hmm. Hey, cheers for the compliment though. |

And yep, I'm looking forward to reading book after book from this site (and others), as soon as I figure out how to read them on my laptop - without developing a headache. |

Now I knew there were other people out there teaching English and flitting around the world, but editorial and design? Obviously we are the same person, uh, sort of. |

hi tali3sin, where are you in the czech republic ? i've been to prague several times, it's one of my favorite cities in the world.
i saw your post about trying to get a bebook ; that should work, although it might take a little while. you might also put an ad in the flea market if you have anything you could trade ; maybe someone who is planning to upgrade (or has more devices than they can possibly use... there are a few like that around here) could be interested. anyway welcome to the forum ; ebooks are a wonderful thing. |

Hmm, something to trade...!
You love Prague, eh? Well, that's where I live Yes, it's wonderful here. Although, being from Australia, I'm starting to get a little tired of the snow ;-) |

I used to live in Paddington, Sydney but I'm glad I am not there right now, what with the heat wave and bushfires. Where are you from in Oz? |

Ah, near Cronulla. Apparently the heat wave is awful, and the death toll on the bushfires (last I heard) was 189, and climbing. People are saying it's worse than Ash Wednesday :-\ And it sounds like it is. |
