That means I'm a subject matter expert on all things Russia, Ukraine and UK.

I hope you will not be tired of my pictures soon.  :chuckle:
I just want everyone to feel Christmas spirit of my town. It's amazing!

Why not enhance some pics with yourself in them?

You are sooo setting me in festive mood with this pictures!

I am in a "festive mood" too. I have just passed the last final exam!!!
In seven classes (5 classes and two labs) I have A. Unbelievable! It was so difficult!
I am a little lost. What people usually do with the freedom?

Congratulations!! :BEER:  :thumbsup:
I'm done with my exams as well.  I still have 8 more months of welding classes left before I am done.

Congrats!  :BEER:

I'd go out and have a nice freedom steak, drink some freedom beer, maybe watch a freedom movie while enjoying freedom ice cream, take a freedom bath shower, and follow that with some freedom sleep.  ;D

What's all this freedom stuff ? ???

Ehem, Sharon, dear, Orchid dedicated this thread to me, when you'll have a thread dedicated to you, only then you are allowed to make specific wishes!  :knit:

We decorate Christmas tree like this in Russia, with the star on top.
Your daughter is beautiful!
Merry Christmas, Mr AJ!
