Hello Line … you've written this well to finish with the proverb. There is not enough think before you act actions - thank you Line - Lindsay

Really like how you set this up for the Romani proverb final line. I find this a challenging contest, and I'd say that you've (more than) met the challenge! Good luck, Line! :) gw
