Never the less, knowing the sender of that message very well, I responded “yes” with doubts in my mind. For whenever I tried […]

We shifted, uneventfully that is. New house is demanding a considerable amount of travel, add to it lack of internet, that should explain the reason for nopost days. My plans for CalvinFund have taken a neat shape and currently the unbooked profits stand at 4-5%. But I am going to stop it and buy the […]
