That's an excellent idea. Roughly how many words did you write? I think from the conversational side it's going to be pretty generic which I think I can handle. I used to practice karate and if I took over the class for the instructor had to give instructions in Japanese. I still remember many of the instructions one of which was fonetically 'Mawashi Geri' meaning 'roundhouse kick' to the head, sides or knees! I forget the Japanese word for lower, middle or high!!!
P.S. I forgot to mention I ran my own Shotokan Karate Club for a year, took over from the instructor when he quit.

My wife & I were asked to write a CV / "Why Hungary" in English, when we first registered.

I wasn't asked 'Why Hungary' so I wrote my whole life story on one A4 page! I hate speeches so think don't want attendees at my funeral to have to listen to two hours about my life. Five minutes is enough then attend the wake.

I'm not sure probably about 150. It really was a potted version. I remember thinking does all my life actually fit on less than one page !

I've known you for atleast ten years. I did once suggest you wrote a book about when you first moved to Hungary. If you don't do it I might do it for you with the help of a UK deaf friend . This deaf friend was born in Uganda to an English father and Scottish mother. They returned to UK because they wanted their deaf son to have s good education.
