Hi Sis. Lovely to hear from you. Your sister is doing fab! I'm going to AA and it feels like the right time for me. I really pushed against it at first, but it's helping me enormously now.
I did a Spanish night school once many many years back. I didn't get past 'my name is sazzle, and l have a white car' before I quit. I no longer have a white car so I couldn't speak to a Spaniard anymore!
