And why are you sad, my fellow?

[Molly Malone 4 448]

Of course my cat will win...i want him to win. and we'll spend the money in the nearest pub

 

But i know for sure that UFO is unidentified flying object, came across this a couple of days ago.

 

Happy Halloween everyone!

 

Tonight i am going to wear a costume of a witch and visit victorian.

At first i wanted to wear a costume of a Playboy Hare, but it's not scary enough

You've done the difficult test very well. You've only made two mistakes:

 

in No 6 IOU stand for "I Owe You" (Я Вам должен - долговая расписка) and in No 11.

But i know for sure that UFO is unidentified flying object, came across this a couple of days ago.

Your friend Molly helped you and you get a special prize. I'm sure this money will be enough to take Molly to the most fashionable restaurant.

Have a good time!
