Welcome back RUA old-timers. What have you been doing?

Not that any of the old-timers got burned out on RUA and then came back.

But, how has everyone been that took a leave for a spell?

Is Tom_T alive?
Leaving Russia is not an emigration, rather an evacuation.

He vanished the moment Trump won and hasn't been seen since.

Look what the American media makes some people believe:
Putin often threatens to strike US with nuclear weapons.

Anteros never left mate - just been posting as somebody else!!

TomT is a miss for sure - hopefully be back someday!
If you get a minute check out Bruce's TR - Its not quite finished, however its still a pretty good read IMHO.

If I win the lottery I'll finish it this week if not I'll probably complete it when I retire!!! Until then I hope you enjoy the story so far!

Someone told me who that is and I doubt it. Anteros was always good to me unlike the other guy. Same politics but a completely different personality.

Yes he has been married for a number of years but does not post anymore. His wife is lovely and his stepson quite a lively chap.

I've had a change of mind on that. They are the same.
