It is amazing how cynical you can be. I think that Arthur remembers it all
as well I do remember. The happenings I wrote about are NOT stories I
heard they are MY memories which I shared with you. If you find the even=
t
of the first day at school, after returning from the nightmare of
Transnistria incredible, that really is up to you but I can see it all
because things like these are most memorable.
Your story, I think is typical for the city I remember, where the way you
looked was of great importance and where things were done by Schneiders and
Schusters - NO READY MADE CLOTHES!!!
