Welcome to RUA!

While there are no rules, one does not normally write full names of partners. I suspect because of Nosey Parkers. We are a diverse group, but your insights will always be welcome.

Welcome Alistair.

I recall many years ago there was a bunch of expats that had relocated to and around Tver, I guy who had an agency called Richard was involved, and they wanted to create some kind of expat town. I dont think it got off the ground.

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