Hello dear Canuck, and all friends here!
I'm Canuck's elder sister, Mary. I live in Canada.. It was a surprise to me when Canuck sent me an invitation to post to your forum and gave me my user name. I would never have visited or written a message here without an invitation. In fact, without help, it would have been impossible.
It was not easy to find my way to the forum because many instructions are written in Chinese, but Canuck wrote me several emails with instructions that guided me here. I don't think other foreigners will find their way to your forum without such help. Sometimes I sent Canuck little stories, poems or snippets from newspapers that I thought some of you might find interesting, and occasionally he has posted them here. . Maybe that is why he invited me. Someone asked "who is 'Uncle Ben?'" He is my husband. He is a kind and gentle man who loves to laugh and is well known in our town for his helpful ways. Ben emailed the story about the saying: "you are a lucky dog!" to Canuck who decided to post it to the forum two days ago.
I am glad to be here. :-)
Maryk
