could be 2 years away, so dont panic just keep preparing.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

i've been spending a bit of time watching RT(Russia Today) on Freeview channel 85....it was a bit strange to start with..i was expecting to hear heavy Russian accents with the news from a Russian slant..but its all western news with newsreaders with American accents...very strange
