<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;" class="MsoNormal">Dear LL-L community,</p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;" class="MsoNormal">this morning my
youngest son (15) has left me for a 3 weeks stay in Bornemouth/UK. He's busy in
a language course over there - a kind of pretty consequent "crash
course", because they, the young participitiants, are not allowed to talk
German to each other as far as any British person is present.</p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;" class="MsoNormal">It is the very first
time that we are separated for a "long" time as this. Very strange
for me, and some tears of course came up when we had to say <span style=""> </span>good-bye after checking in at the airport Hamburg....</p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;" class="MsoNormal">I told him to inform
his "Gast-Eltern" (no match for this word either in dict.cc or in
Leo!!!; it could be "parents for a time" or "hosting
parents") that he is living in the region "Hadeln" - the
original area where the Anglo-Saxons started their journey to the British
Islands some 1,500 years ago ;-)!</p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;" class="MsoNormal">I hope he will learn
a lot and not put any shame to his parents ;-)!</p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;" class="MsoNormal">(BTW: My oldest son
has had a stay in London last week [for business
reasons]; the second one started on Friday for a four days trip to Manchester[??]. Pure
anglophilie ;-), isn't it?!)</p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;" class="MsoNormal">Have a nice evening!</p>
