WHY ASK WHY ?

Life in Centreal Asia operates under an entirely different set of rules to what we are accustomed to... Some things make sense, and some don't, but you have to just go with the flow...let me give you an example....I went into the phone company today to pay my Internet bill... while I am there , they handed me the Internet bill for Lynne and Ruby as well... We point out that this is not mine... they say "I know but you have to pay it as well " ... I think because I am English ....and I must know them or something ....for some strange reason, that makes sense to me... so I simply pay the bill and leave.... I have learned WHY ASK WHY ?

Because of your blog
