I notice that 'por las culturas finoúgrias y balticas...' and, of course, the 'sok boldogságot'. Thank you very much.<br /><br />And Kathleen, I would be delighted for you to use the paragraph and will look forward to reading the piece. Again, I am very grateful to you that you should write it.George Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08889600788146987089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4638619958588096610.post-43776902747686561592009-12-09T14:08:36.698+00:002009-12-09T14:08:36.698+00:00have just read your latest post.

I was there, briefly in 1990 with a trade delegation to report on the 'opening up' of the eastern bloc but was also there for the re-interment of Imre Nagy, which made a deep impression.<br />On this post - please can I quote your third paragraph in a review I'm doing of 'the Burning of the Books adn other poems' on my own personal bookblog?<br />Kathleen JonesKathleen Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07645566938871914385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4638619958588096610.post-63526895737223855322009-12-08T23:30:36.506+00:002009-12-08T23:30:36.506+00:00George.

Your command of the English language and all it's nuances, and the way you make it dance: sometimes like a tango, other times a waltz or a ballet or a fandango, and even the twist, is fascinating.Billy Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4638619958588096610.post-60648043902064283792009-12-08T19:03:50.525+00:002009-12-08T19:03:50.525+00:00I'm with you, George!

Often it's the same colleges. Often they stay quite long. They delve in corners I've long forgotten about. <br /><br />Not long ago a whole bunch of them turned up on some kind of Internet Treasure Hunt. It seems I was a clue. <br /><br />I love them. They are just.., well all so very interested.Gwil Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03305768121713053837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4638619958588096610.post-11798842488367049472009-12-08T13:10:15.265+00:002009-12-08T13:10:15.265+00:00Your blog is very interesting, Mr. Szirtes.
