Well Michael let me introduce you to Helena. She is from Slovakia she speaks Polish and Czech as well,  but does not speak any English . No English! I was in the welfare office sorting my claim out and making phone calls and stuff when the little boy in front of me asked what I was doing. His name is Nicholas very bright boy (Majella knows him) he is 10 . Great kid really great bags of peraonality . Anyway he asked me if I was married I said no and no girlfriend boo hoo i was too old . He said his friend next to him had no boyfriend. So for a laugh I said no she is too young. (Helena is actually 4*)

Anyway long story short with Nicholas translating, invited her for a drink next day 8pm Bridge House Hotel . She came! Wow! She had a phrase book bur it was pretty useless I had a pint she doesn't drink. Anyway we laughed about stuff with gestures and mannerisms and no English .so so so i said "wanna see my computer?" She didn't understand but said "ok"

We used google translator i type English click appears in Slovak . She types in Slovak click appears in English . She cannot type so good doesn't know computers but we communicate .! Take a break watch a few intros to movies finally give up and I put on Iron Man. After 10 mins put my arm around her shoulder she nestles into me a bit.....

Flat Fact 1: Oscar's first girlfriend was called Florence Balcombe and she was very pretty, she was 17. He gave her a gold cross for Christmas even though he was hard up. Oscar loves the idea of being in love with such a beautiful girl. "But his ardour, if ardour it was, could not be sustained at a distance.... (she was in Ireland he was at Oxford ) so they drifted apart. Florence later became an actress and married Bram Stoker (1847-1912) the future creator of Dracula" .

So Helena and I cuddled a bit, I put my head on her shoulder , stroked her arm held her hand. We kissed.  It was ok because I had watched Iron Man the night before so I knew the story. It's so good,  I love Tony Starks' computer system wow , (I looked up his GUI : graphical user interfac) on the 'net lots a people love it too. Btw Iron Man 2 is in production I looked it up on imdb pro . Helena asked me to turn the movie off so I paused it.

8.36 am the next day sent a text to my 16 year old daughter.

Me : BEST DATE EVER!!! :)))
Sekani : Tell me about it
Me: Sorry still on it lol, Helena speaks NO english NONE last night we used Google
Sekani : Lol did you have a good time?
Me: Sorry darling can't talk still having one at Helena's place and watching MTV. Who sings "thanks for the memories"?
Sekani : Lol fall out boy. Have a good day

Friday 2 .45 pm went home and finished watching Iron Man . God I love that movie!
