I am glad to see other Dosto readers here! :D I have read a couple of his books and shall read all of them. As I simply love his work, I have bought a dvd of the Idiot. Its a tv serie of 10 chapters and was made in 2003. I love it and enjoy the russian language very much. Check out...

Hi Kenny and Sergo! How are you doing? I have been busy with work and debating the muhammed cartoons. Guess you must have heard about these cartoons? I know its not allowed to talk about politics here so I have been debating on other forums. I have finally got the book about learning...

You forgot one import person, Dostojevksy or should I say Dastaevski? ;) I am for one glad that you learned english Flower

I have just made my first order at abebooks the other day. So far I have got emails letting me know that the book has been shipped. And I could email them back if I had any questions.

Thanks Stewart! Didnt know you knew a little russian too! I have found a good exercise cd set but its in danish, so I did not want to talk about it. There I can tape my own voice of the words and then listen to how I prounounce the words compaired to how it should be done. You can also tape...

I have made a thread in the general book forum about Harold Pinter´s speech at the swedish academy for nobel prize in litteratur. I wanted to discuss the literate part of the speech, knowing that we cannot talk about politics on this site. But then, two people SFG75 and Kenny Shovel, get the...

Hi Sergo and Kenny I have done some searching about learning russian. I think I may start by buying a book and maybe some cds, then I can attend a course in the autumn. Talked to a guy at work, he speaks like 200 words or so of russian, and he said it would be best if I learned the alphabet...

Still I learn and others, I have printed the english speech and shall read it and get back to you soon. Hope there may be other who care to talk about this speech in a civil manner. And I DO believe its possible to talk about it without getting into politics. Flower

I have recently seen "Brokeback Mountain" with my son, who is 16 years old. I think the film was very very good and they did a great job in portraiting the feelings and the situation the two men were in. Most of all, I thought it to be a great love story. My son liked the film as well...

Wauuu, I turn my back and then I realize that I have stepped in something touchy here. :eek: I dont have the speech in English (shall check out the link), but I thought he had several good points and his speech had a lot of good observations and I am glad that such a writer got the award...

I am a wee bit amased that, as far as I can see, no one has talked about Harold Pinter´s speech at the Swedish academy, when he got the nobel prize. I mean this is a book site and it is the nobel prize in litterature he won. Anyone care to comment?? Flower

Yes, I could imagine that to make it illegal to drink on the red square and to try to stop it was a thought/idea of the old times where the KBG could controll people. I had a couple of glasses of champagne to celebrate the new year plus all the other stuff that I drank, so I ended up having a...

Love this! :D just not quite how I picture you though. Flower

Thank you! What a nice surprice to see this thread! Had a nice birthday with love and hangovers....:p Flower

Oh, so you speak more words than I do. I think I know 4 words in russain. I have ordered the dvd with the film "the Idiot" from the novel by Dostojevsky. Its in russian with english subtitles, so I would problably learn a few more words. I trust you have contact with a intelligence somewhere...

Here is a photo, taken outside my house by my son!

Hi Sergo! I just read in the newspaper today, that you cannot drink outside in Moscow tonight! Hope you have a nice new years eve anyway and get some nice champagne with your family. Flower
