you never know what the future holds, but to get back here, you will be made most welcome, sweet dreams

I will have to try to get used to the time difference between us

http://www.worldtimezone.com/

Yup
We have 8 hours time difference in summer.
We are 8 hours ahead to you.
Now it's 10 to 6 in the morning of the 15th which means it's 10 to ten in the UK of the 14th of July
In winter it'll change from 8 hours to 9 hours as we haven't got any summer time here in Japan
Anyway very confused matter of fact indeed

we have to put the time back 1 hour and forward 1 hour every year, to help compensate for the winter darkness, that confuses some

As you know, I'm from New York, so I don't *really* speak English!

Hiya Barbara,
It doesn't mind.
This is jsut my search aobut English words.
So please leave your message

Aussi, as well !

ha! I don't speak english either, wot's tha' seh!

So many people speak English evne their first language isn't English.
(can say except for French people)

good morning from here Taamyu, is it around 15.00 hrs where you are in Japan

oops, got it wrong, looking at wrong time thing is it 19.00hrs approx

Hiya,
It's quarter to 7 at night here whereas it's quater to 11 in the UK
We've got 8 hours time differences

wish I was a genius, 8 hrs forward for you and various hours behind for friends in the States and Canada, I have a map of the world on wall, but it does not give time zones, I am on the look out for one. it will help

I have to be on here in late afternoon so that I can say "GOODMORNIG" to you

Okay then:

I pronounce often as [AWFdin] ... told you I didn't speak English!

Barbara
That's very NEW to me
Very interesting
I leant it to pronounce [of'n]
But now I'll try to say [ofTn]


To my s, it's very hard to say CAN'T NOR KAAAANT for can't
There are so many sounds which we don't have

London way, they stretch their words out, we up North, short'n ar's.

shorten oursit saves breath

But the sound [T] is heard, isn't it?

t'oven = the oven t'other day - the other day


I'm of't shop =I'm going to the shop
