    Hi there! I am 15 years old student from Ukraine, due to the war with russia our country faced a huge economical crisis, therefore I have to earn money myself as soon as it possible. Due to the circumstances which I’ve mentioned higher I’ve started learning IT in oder to employ within the next few months. Your audiobooks really help me improve my English knowledge, which is a very essential skill in IT industry. Thank you very much!

      GOD bless you, Ihor Zakharov. GOD is above all the turmoil down here. I hope and pray that you join hands with HIM as a son through CHRIST and have victory in your endeavors. To you, other Ukrainians, Russians too, and all who treasure peace, I'm in your corner and wish GOD'S best.

      That reminds me of Barry Humphries' great Dame Edna line when introducing a guest: Let's give him the clap he so richly deserves.

    Can see what a master story writter Conan Doyle was!
    Maybe Holmes did rather take over,can see why he’d want to kill him off to concentrate on other stories.
    His interest in the paranormal makes them all the more fascinating ✊
